Christmas Shopping Spree 2025
Dear Harrison Community,
The Christmas season is fast approaching. With this in mind, we would like to extend an invitation to our
athletes, Athlete Advisory Council, district faculty and the whole Harrison community to join the athletic
department in helping some of our students in the Harrison School District experience a better
Christmas.
Many years ago, Beta Upsilon Sorority started a Christmas Shopping Spree. Students were chosen from
each campus to go on a $100 Shopping Spree at Wal-Mart. This past year we were able to take over 100
students and hope to help the same amount this year. Last year we increased that amount to $125.00
and we were still be able to take 100 students shopping.
This is how the program works: Students will be chosen by each schools’ administrators, nurses and
other faculty. 7th/8th grade and high school students will be given a gift card to Wal-Mart to be used as
they desire. Students K-6th grade will be taken by bus (with Santa driving) to Wal-Mart to shop
alongside a JR or SR athlete. We will then finish the morning off with pizza and plenty of Mountain Dew
at the Cash Center.
The number of students chosen this year will depend on the amount of donations received. If you or
your group are interested in making a donation, please send your check to Harrison High School, c/o
Kathy Williams, School Administrative Assistant, 925 Goblin Drive, Harrison, AR 72601. Checks can be
made payable to the HHS Christmas Fund. No donation is too small. Please make your donation no later
than December 10th.
Thank you and may God bless you and your family with a very Merry Christmas.
Sincerely,
Chris Pratt
Director of Athletics
Harrison School District
