Special Edition Post: HOMECOMING KICK-OFF!!! By Lauren O.

Special Edition Post:  HOMECOMING KICK-OFF!!!!!!  

We had a blast this year at homecoming kick-off, starting with the coronation of homecoming king and queen! As the candidates walked proudly up to the middle of the basketball court, OHS students were eager to hear who won.  Well, at least I was...... Tate L. was king and Brandi W. was queen.  Then, after the king and queen had been crowned, all of the fall sport team captains came down and talked about their plans for the future.

Next came the games, starting with “Iron Man” volleyball.  Now, you may get from the name that we had all of the volleyball players running around in big steel suits, but quite far from it.  We had a lot of the guys, grades 7-12, playing volleyball.  The Juniors placed first, with the Seniors in second, and finally the 7th grade in third. Our 8th grade team put out a pretty good effort, but we didn’t place due to losing to the Sophomores.  

Then came “Powder-Puff” football.   Most of the girls were playing, and we played pretty hard there too, but lost out in the first game.  Seniors took first, with juniors and sophomores behind.  

This week, we’ve got a LOT going on here at OHS.  We’ve got dress up days all this week, starting with polka dot day. Tuesday is Favorite Super hero day, then class colors, followed by Wild West and blue and white days.  Since this post is a day late, I can tell you who won for today’s dress up.  The gym was packed for judging, with SPECTATORS.  There were only five people who went to get judged, including Aurora G, Trevor D, and Jared P and me.  Of course, I’m clad in a bright yellow towel and have polka-dots drawn all over face, arms, and legs.  The towel came off, but the makeup didn’t.  Enough said.
