Northeast Range Homecoming Comes Again!

Northeast Range Homecoming Comes Again! - “Huddle Up On Tuesday the 11th”
Both of our ladies sports teams are playing at home this week after being out of town during homecoming last week.

The Lady Nighthawks will swim against the Virginia Blue Devils. The meet starts at 5 p.m. so we will see you there to cheer them on.

After that, another true homecoming to celebrate! The Lady Nighthawk Volleyball team will be playing against the Lady Timberwolves, JV game will be at 5:15 p.m. I believe, Varsity game at 7 p.m. in the newly remodeled Northeast Range Gymnasium. These will be the first ever Nighthawk volleyball matches played here!

Both the pool and gymnasium look very nice and you need to be there to get the full effect. Be there to cheer on our teams! GO NIGHTHAWKS!

Zup’s in Babbitt will definitely rebuild
