Good afternoon, This is Jason Wheeler with a few important announcements about tonight’s football game. First, we want to welcome our entire community to tonight’s game to show your support and cheer on our Rocket Football team. It has been amazing to see the support shown by the entire community over the last few weeks and we want to thank everyone. Secondly, parking at the school may be limited due to the expected larger than usual crowd. To help everyone arrive safely and on time, we encourage families and friends to carpool whenever possible. We are also encouraging spectators to allow extra time to purchase tickets and get through the line. Finally, the outside bathrooms normally used for football games will be closed for tonight's game due to the on-going plumbing issues. However, portable toilets have been placed around the football field and are available for use at tonight's game. As always, we appreciate your support and encourage everyone to represent Craig County with pride, respect, and outstanding sportsmanship. Doing so will show our guests and community the true spirit and values of Craig County Public Schools, and what it means to be a Rocket. Thank you.
