Spirit

Leah Brewster vistaridgespirit@gmail.com

The committee works as small crews, each with a parent lead: noise makers, Cups on the Fence, footballs on the poles, and a locker room crew for varsity, JV and freshman. Pick a crew that fits your week, show up when you can, and ask your team liaison for the Spirit Committee GroupMe.
