Runza Cheerleader Night
The Homecoming Parade Route has CHANGED due to a waterline break on the square. The whole parade will take place on Fifth Street, starting just before the square and continuing to the library! If you are planning to have a float in the parade, you can park on Nebraska Avenue West of Fifth Street and we will direct you from there. We will use the parking lot of the old IGA for the convertibles and bands. The coronation will still take place at the Opera House. Thank you for understanding.
Great job to the trailblazers this season in the first year of our softball coop. The players and coaches really came together and it was a positive experience for all. The girls fell short to McCook 9-8 in a really great game at sub districts tonight. The players showed a great deal of improvement and really bought in to their coaches. We are very excited for what the future of trailblazer softball holds!!
Good Luck to the Highway 6 Trailblazer softball team today as they open up Sub-District play at Patriot Park in Kearney vs McCook at 4:45pm. Good Luck Girls!!
The JV football game scheduled for Monday 10/2 at Adams Central will start at 5pm, NOT 6pm.
Reminder: MPS will not have school on Monday, October 2nd, for an all-staff professional development day at ESU 11. Have a great weekend.

The volleyball team won their pool at the Holdrege invite this morning and they will play in the championship match against GICC. The scheduled time was 3pm for the championship match but they are running well ahead of schedule so the game will likely be much earlier. We expect to start as early as 1:30 to 2pm give or take.
What a crowd tonight to support our Whippet volleyball team. Regardless of the outcome, we are beyond thankful for all of the community support.
THANK YOU WHIPPET NATION!!
HWY 6 Softball Fans:
The varsity game at Southern Valley will be played at 4:30pm today with the JV game to follow. This change was made in order to get the varsity game completed in case severe weather moves in later this evening.
