We are planning on taking a fan bus to the Softball State game on Friday, September 18th. This is open to 6th-8th grade students. The permission slip will be sent home tonight. The permission slip & $8 (MGS purchases student tickets) has to be turned in by Thursday afternoon to be able to ride the bus. No late entries will be allowed. The bus will leave the school around 9AM & return around 1PM. No food will be allowed in the complex so students will need to bring money for lunch (concessions).
If you have any questions, please reach out to Amy Messacar at amessacar@mgsredbirds.org.
We need atleast 20 students to take a fan bus. If not enough interest, students will not be leaving & their money will be returned.
Congratulations to the Girls Softball team on their return to State. If you are planning on attending the game on Friday you will need to purchase your tickets ahead of time through Go Fan. Game is at 10:00AM at Champion Fields in Normal. QR code is attached to scan to purchase tickets.
