Thank you to everyone who came out to cheer on the Pirates and celebrate Stevenson’s Homecoming Weekend. The weather was beautiful, the stands were full, and both the JV and Varsity football teams won!
Just before Varsity kick-off, Jeff Young led a moving tribute to coaching legend Jason Harbert. Mrs. Chris West and the Carmel Campus middle school choir, accompanied by Eddie Mendenhall ‘90 and the high school Pep Band, sang the National Anthem. The Snack Shack and the Carmel Campus Bake Sale Booth served up delicious treats by hard-working volunteers, while the kids burned off the sugar at the arts and crafts tables and bounce houses.
The golf-cart float parade, the spirited idea of Kelly Smith ’14, marked the start of a new tradition for Homecoming Weekend. Faculty members Mark Tretter, Biff Smith, Bill Hankison, and Kirsten Matsumoto dressed in pirate wear as they drove the floats down the track. With the winners determined by crowd applause, the Junior Class and the Carmel Campus took the prizes as fan favorites and will each be treated to a special party.
A special thank you to our many parent, faculty, staff, and student volunteers who made the weekend such a success. Go Pirates!
