The annual Powder Puff and Powder Buff games are back with the class of 2023 vs. the class of 2024. The Student Council will be hosting this event on May 19 and encourage people to come.
“I feel like it will go smoothly. We got a solid team building up here and there is a lot of potential.” Senior Braiden Barrett said. “Coaching wise- We have some of the best coaches who are really good at breaking down the many aspects of the game and how to properly work together as a team. I’m really looking forward to the 2023 Powder Puff game, it’s going to be a big one!”
Powder Puff and Buff are the biggest fundraisers the Student Council holds every year. The proceeds go towards the cause they had planned to help with this year and the student scholarships. Approximately 80 percent will be going towards the Stephenson family, who was chosen as the recipient, to help Mrs. Stephenson through her treatments. The 20 percent left goes towards the student scholarships to be awarded to the students who put in all the hard work to make these things happen.
“I think the game will be really fun and will be a memorable high school experience.” Junior Avery Thaler said. “I think our junior class will show out and win not only Powder Puff but also Powder Buff.”
Powder Buff will be held in the Johnson Activity Center at 5 o’clock, admissions will be $3 at the gate for all with five and under free. Powder Puff will be held at the football field at 7 o’clock, admissions will be $5 for all with five and under free. Concessions will be provided at both games.
