Football Parking
Football parking is the easiest and most successful Horn fundraiser.  Thank you to everyone who has already helped this fall.  We have already raised more than $5000.  Tomorrow, 10/1, we have one open volunteer slots from 9:00-11:00.  Sign-up here for a 2 hour shift, meet the other Horn families, and collect parking money.  Bring your kids and they can play on the playground or set up a lemonade stand!

Each Saturday home game, cars park in the school parking lot and playground blacktop off Benton for $15.
