Unified Night Lights Registration
Event date: Wednesday September 21, 2022
Be A Part of "Kirkwood Unified Night Lights"
The KHS football team, cheer team, dance squad, pep nation and band would like to invite all Kirkwood students with disabilities and their siblings to participate in a Unified Flag Football game. A unified game is one in which people with and without disabilities play together -- side-by-side; shoulder-to-shoulder! We believe sports is one unifying effort that can help provide a path to friendships and understanding.
In addition to playing flag football, there are many other ways your child(ren) can participate. Students can pump up the crowd and dance with the cheerleaders and dance team, go crazy with Pep Nation or jam to the sounds of the KHS Band.
If your student(s) are interested in participating, please visit kirkwoodschools.org/unl for information. To register for the event, visit: https://forms.gle/9hwUTrnfyYVd8Jvt8. New this year: all student participants will receive a shirt. Please indicate the shirt size for each participant on the registration form.
Please complete registration by Friday, September 16. Participants will be partnered up with a member of the KHS football team, cheer team, dance squad, pep nation or band. The partner student will be with your child throughout the event.
All participants and their families are invited to the pre-game pizza dinner which is sponsored by the Kirkwood School District Foundation.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on Wednesday, September 21!
