Good luck to our 6th-8th grade girls basketball teams tonight as our 6th grade travels to Henry to wrap up their season and our 7th/8th grade will host the Henry Cardinals. We will also be honoring our 8th graders in between games and Interact will be doing the infamous Chuck A Duck at halftime of the 8th grade game. All proceeds of Chuck A Duck will go towards the Believe Foundation in Princeton.
