On November 15th and November 22nd, there will be a Volleyball Skills and Drills Camp at the Scranton Gym for grades 4-6 from 2:00-4:00 PM. This skills and drills camp will be run by Ria Eaton and will focus on the fundamentals of volleyball. These camp days are free of charge and are open to any students in grades 4-6 from both the Scranton and Hettinger schools. Come on out and fall in love with the great sport of volleyball!
The Hettinger/Scranton Nighthawks will be having their fall sports banquet on Sunday, November 22, at 5:30 in the Hettinger Public School gymnasium to celebrate the accomplishments of the girls' golf, football, and volleyball athletes and teams. The Nighthawk Booster Club will be providing the main meal but are asking each family to bring their own beverage. The Nighthawk Booster Club is also asking each senior family to bring a pan of bars or cookies to share. We are asking that each team member get a head count of immediate family members who will be attending the banquet to their coach no later than Thursday, November 12th so that we can plan accordingly for food. If you are a dual sport athlete or have siblings in a fall sport, please only RSVP once for you and your family. We cannot wait for a fun night of celebrating our athletes!
