Runza Cheerleader Night
The Homecoming Parade Route has CHANGED due to a waterline break on the square. The whole parade will take place on Fifth Street, starting just before the square and continuing to the library! If you are planning to have a float in the parade, you can park on Nebraska Avenue West of Fifth Street and we will direct you from there. We will use the parking lot of the old IGA for the convertibles and bands. The coronation will still take place at the Opera House. Thank you for understanding.
Great job to the trailblazers this season in the first year of our softball coop. The players and coaches really came together and it was a positive experience for all. The girls fell short to McCook 9-8 in a really great game at sub districts tonight. The players showed a great deal of improvement and really bought in to their coaches. We are very excited for what the future of trailblazer softball holds!!
