It’s hoop-time on Friday, March 11 when Friday Harbor High School seniors and teachers meet on the court for the annual Senior VS Staff Basketball game.

The fundraiser at the Turnbull Gym for 2016 Grad Night activities features an array of action to make for a fun-filled family evening: from a hamburger barbecue before the game; to watching favorite teachers try to make that basket; to bailing out visitors from the gym “jail”; to a half-time “battle of the bands” between Senior Band Students and “The District” (featuring FHHS teachers); to raffles for a generous amount of island services, including stays at the Friday Harbor House and Lakedale Resort.

“This game really brings out our school and community spirit,” said Tami Hayes, one of the coordinators of the event. “It also is a very fun way to raise money to ensure our kids have a safe and sane grad night.”

The barbecue ($10 per meal) starts at 5:00 p.m. outside the gym, followed by tip-off at 6:30 p.m. Game admission is by donation.

The Grad Night for the FHHS Class of 2016 is on June 11—several island adult chaperones will be on hand as students are treated to an “up all night” celebration. For more information on how to volunteer or donate to the event, contact Jan Bollwinkel-Smith at janb726 [@] centurytel.net.
