BOBCAT BOWL

BOBCAT BOWL SUCCESS!

THANK YOU to our event committee, parents, volunteers, and staff who came together to make this year’s 10th Anniversary Bobcat Bowl a huge success!

The night was full of fun and memories as our community came together to raise money for our school! Each team competed in a special night of games before meeting at the end point for the annual dinner and auction! Congratulations to “Little Team on the Prairie (1880s)” for taking home first place!

We are excited to share that we met AND exceeded our goal of raising $275,000!

What is the Bobcat Bowl?! This annual event combines fun with function as our community comes together to raise money for our school! Be sure to join us in 2025-26 for our next Bobcat Bowl!
