Window Decals - Decal Order Form (PDF)

Installation Instructions:

• Surface Preparation - To ensure a successful application, apply only to a clean and dry window surface and in temperatures above 40 degrees. Do not apply where the sticker will come in contact with anything that would repeatedly move across it and could begin to lift the edges off the surface (like a wiper blade or a side window that rolls down).
• Application - Peel the harder, white backing off from the thinner front paper WHILE KEEPING THE DECAL STICKER STUCK TO THE THINNER WHITE FRONT PAPER. Apply both the thinner front paper and the decal sticker to the surface TOGETHER. Then use the edge of a credit card and slide it multiple times across the entire decal and all its edges to securely stick it to the surface. Once the decal is secured to the surface, then gently peel the thinner front paper off the surface and off the decal. Make sure that as you peel it off that you do not loosen the edges of the decal in the process.

We need your help!

Every season the Athletic Department needs your help in order to make our sports programs the best they can be! There are numerous areas that we need volunteers in and we are always looking to start new programs to grow our athletic programs. The following volunteer opportunities are generally needed for every sport at every level:

1. Gate Keepers
2. Concession Stand Workers
3. Scoreboard Operators
4. Scorebook Keepers
5. PA Announcers
6. Senior Nights (making boards, hanging decorations, etc.)
7. End of Season Awards Banquet (decorations, food preparation, etc.)

In addition to these programs, we are also seeking individuals to help organize and run Elementary Intramurals for this spring. If you have a sport that you are interested in having our Elementary Students participate in we would love to hear from you! We would like to have a series of intramural games offered one day a week in the spring in order to expose the students to different sports that they can pursue as they grow.
