Tickets on sale today at lunch, after school and at the door before the show.

Have you ever driven a Zamboni at an ice rink? Would you like to learn how? Well, you have the opportunity to bid on this unique opportunity (and a whole bunch of other cool things too!) at Novemberfest. We are in the final countdown to the LHS silent auction, this Saturday, November 13 from 5:30-9:00. Have dinner at school, bid a little, watch Lions Follies, come eat dessert at the yummy dessert bar, and then place your final bids. Dinner tickets are still available in the Athletic Office- Dickey’s BBQ will be catering the event; tickets are $10. A very limited number will be available for $15/ticket on Saturday, so buy them ASAP! The proceeds of Novemberfest all go to a great cause, so come support Lions Boosters!!!
