Oak Forest HS's Bengal Bash a Good Dose of Fun

Oak Forest High School Freshmen Marissa Mushinski, Delanie Doyle, and Abigail Brenner show off the Target gift cards they won at the Bengal Bash, a celebration held for students that have not received any disciplinary action this school year.

Premium prizes included homecoming and prom tickets and parking passes. Other prizes students won were Bengal Bash t-shirts, PE uniforms, OFHS activity passes, Target gift cards, Buffalo Wild Wings gift cards, Chipotle gift cards, and McDonald’s gift cards.
