Attention Families:
We've had several issues at recent football games involving unsupervised minors and misbehavior. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, we're asking all families to supervise their children throughout the event.
Please note that backpacks are not permitted within the complex, and we ask everyone to respect cordoned-off areas and remain within the Hoch Field complex. Additionally, no one should be on the baseball field or in any blocked-off areas.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in helping us maintain a safe environment for all.
Be a part of the conversation.
Join us to learn more about the community proposed School Based Health Center.
Join us tonight, October 29 at 6pm at Johnson Hall in downtown Gardiner.
