TAILGATING TIME!
Come Tailgate with the MC Hurricane Nation Tomorrow Night!
HURRICANES are HUNGRY for a VICTORY!
Due to a schedule change-up in our Conference, we are hosting a few Friday home football games in which only the Varsity game will be played (at 7:00 pm). With this change, comes a WONDERFUL opportunity to partake in our continued tradition of Hurricane Tailgating prior to the game! We hope that you are able to stop by the Hurricane Tailgate section of the parking lot (in the "Faculty" parking lot, near the Chapel and Annex) and mingle with other parents and students!
Rather than wait to include in our weekly Friday Focus, we wanted to get this information out to you TODAY so you can best plan your FRIDAY FEASTING prior to the game!
We are so excited that many of our parents are hosting themed events, such as a delicious Pulled Pork Contest, that are free and open to all who wish to visit!
We also hope you consider helping support our amazing Key Club as they host a friendly Bags Tourney to raise money to help send children with Spina Bifida to summer camp! (Tournament begins at 4:30 pm) With a $5 entry-fee, you can join in the competition AND help support this wonderful charity!
Here are the details for anyone wishing to tailgate during the Football season - or prior to any home athletic event:
- ANY sport is welcome to "tailgate" prior to a home game. Please just email our Athletic Director, Curtis Price (cprice@marian.com) or our Assistant Principal, Cheryl Loy (cloy@marian.com) at least three business-days in advance so we can coordinate with our Maintenance crew to provide adequate, safe trash and hot-coals disposal.
- In anticipation of our home football games, we will automatically have the necessary trash/coals disposal ready to go, and will designate the FACULTY PARKING LOT area for this purpose! (Lot next to the Annex/chapel)
- pre-Football tailgating will be allowed from 4:00 pm - 6:30 pm, and spaces will be available "first-come, first-served." Space, as you know, is limited ESPECIALLY FOR THE HOMECOMING GAME - so please consider keeping it simple (hold off on bringing the expandable RV!) Bring your tables, grills, and chairs!
- We are a completely SMOKE-FREE and ALCOHOL-FREE campus - so please refrain from smoking or drinking on school property. (Your BBQ grills may smoke all they want though! )
- Please CLEAN UP after yourself! We do not want to create more work for our dedicated Maintenance crew, nor do we want to litter our property - especially over near our beloved chapel and memorial garden. Let's make sure our traditions remain positive and joyful!
