The Draw Down is right around the corner. Tickets available at the door. #BePurple


DRAW DOWN - Tickets available at the door. The money raised here directly or indirectly supports most, if not all activities at the middle school and high school levels. These funds provide for the "extras" that are not budgeted by the school district. Has your athlete used the updated weight room? Have they found having the Hudl program beneficial? Will you enjoy hearing football and soccer games and graduation ceremonies through a new sound system? These are examples of things provided for through fundraisers like this. There are still tickets left!! You do not have to be present to win, but if you are around tomorrow night, it is always a fun time at the Elk's and we have some really great silent auction items for you to bid on. Questions please email rfegan@dps170.org. #BePurple
