Due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases in our area, the Mammoth Spring School District has made the decision to cancel all athletic events for the week of October 12-16. We are currently working on our COVID plan on campus to allow for more social distancing among students and staff. We ask that everyone be mindful of social distancing and wearing masks when out in public places. We thank you all for your continued support and efforts to keep our students and staff safe and healthy.
Extra tickets for Monday’s Blue & White Game (Boys Session & Girls Session) are available for pick up at the Main Gym. Please call 870-371-1344 when you are outside and we will bring them to your vehicle! #3DAYS #GOBEARS
Calling all Bear fans! Since we will not have a visitor crowd for the Blue and White game, we have decided to do a one-time ticket giveaway this Thursday, October 8 from 5:30-6 PM in front of the high school. These will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis and you must be present at the time of pick-up to use these tickets. You cannot send someone to pick the tickets up for you. The games will consist of 1 girls session and 1 boys session with 20 pods of 2 and 1 pod of 4 available for each session. A total of 44 tickets for each session will be available. Limit of 1 session per person. Again, this is a one-time deal!
We ask that everyone pull in front of the high school doors and stay in their vehicles when picking up tickets.
The Blue and White games are scheduled for Monday, October 12 starting at 5:30 PM. Masks and social distancing will be enforced in the gym to ensure the health and safety of our athletes, coaches, and fans.
