'Treasure Island' Premieres Tonight, HHS Update of the Week

It was a very busy week for the Drama class. Their first play, Treasure Island is premiering tonight, in Frost Hall at 8:15pm. 

A lot of time, money, and effort was put into the creation of this play. The cost to enter is $10, but you are also available to buy a season pass for $50, which allows you to not have to wait in line.

The Healdsburg High School band participated in a fall concert on Thursday, Oct. 27. There were over 100 students that performed and it was a fun night to listen to the students’ talent.

Congratulations to Saskia Tingey! She is the DAR Citizenship Award Nominee for Class of 2012. The DAR, Daughters of the American Revolution, seeks to recognize students who show exemplary characteristics of citizenship, leadership and service in their school and/or community. One senior may be nominated each year.

Our school newspaper, The Hound’s Bark, came out today. If you would like to see more information about HHS, go to www.thehoundsbark.com

CLUBS

The clubs at Healdsburg High School met at lunch time to discuss future events such as planning Food Court Day or discussing relevant topics.

Food Court Day is a day when clubs or any organization is allowed to sell food during lunch in the quad area.

This only happens four times a year, but it is a great time for everyone in the school to come together in the quad and listen to music and munch on home made pizza from the Culinary class, or corn on the cob from the Mayo Club.

SPORTS

This past weekend the girls and boys tennis teams hosted its first “Mixed Generations” Tennis Tournament. Taking first place in the 3.5 division was Healdsburg’s own Peter Jensch. Congratulations!

Winter sports are beginning soon. There are basketball and wrestling tryouts in two weeks, Nov. 7. Open gym has already been available for players to practice before the season begins.

The wrestling team is looking for a team manager and several statisticians to be a part of their team. Anyone interested can come to the cafeteria at 3:10 and speak to one of the coaches in November.

The Spirit Squad, a group of students who love to show their spirit for Healdsburg High School, attended two games this week, first rooting for the Boy’s Soccer team Wednesday and then cheering for the Girl’s Volleyball team Thursday evening.
