Last year, for the first time, we offered a sponsorship program for the PHS Football Program. It was really word of mouth and a lot of work by a handful of our diligent football supporters that made it so successful. This year we are going to open it up to the world of Social Media. If you or someone you know would like to support our program we have numerous ways to do so at Striedl Field as well as sponsorship opportunities for our Golf Outing on August 3rd. Go Blue!

🌟 What an amazing experience for these 6th graders at Waldo!! 🚀👦

Today marked their last rocket game, and possibly the final time they play at Waldo. It's truly a bittersweet moment 😔 These boys have grown so much throughout this journey, both as individuals and as a team.

They played their hearts out and gave it their all on that field! The dedication, hard work, and teamwork they displayed throughout the season was truly inspiring. 🙌💪
