Also, Minden High School is hosting the C1-6 Volleyball District Final at 3:30 PM between Ogallala and Pierce.

Once all of the spectators from the other two schools have entered, those of you who want to watch the second game may re-enter and sit where there is room.

Just a reminder state shirt orders are due tonight (Wednesday, October 25th) by 11:59 p.m. We will be playing on Saturday. Opponent and time will be official tomorrow morning sometime.
Unfortunately, due to the timing of the sub-state game on Saturday, October 28th and state volleyball beginning on Wednesday, November 1st, orders for state t-shirts will be have to placed before we even know if we made it to state. Orders are due Wednesday, October 25th, at 11:59 p.m. I really don't like doing it this way, but due to logistics it is a must. If we were to lose the sub-state game, BSN will refund all money. We are so thankful for all of the support shown to our team throughout this season.

CLJMS Whippet Pack Families discussed the importance of teamwork during today's "family meeting". Groups stood on blankets & had to work together to flip a blanket over without anyone getting off of it (feet had to stay on the blankets). What a great way to start the week!
