Friday 'Pack the Gym' night

Friday night, the Saratoga Panthers host the Encampment Tigers for the first time in the 2015/2016 basketball season and the Saratoga Middle High School Student Council is hoping to pack the gym.

It is also the first home game for the Panthers and Lady Panthers.

Heather Bartlett, a student council sponsor at Saratoga Middle High School, said the student council is planning two “Pack the Gym” nights. One is for the first home game and the other is for the last home game against Lusk on Feb. 19.

All Saratoga Elementary School students are encouraged to attend so their class can win a prize, Bartlett said.

The student council will be selling meals at the game, so families can enjoy the night and have dinner too.

“The student council is inviting everyone to put on their purple and gold and come cheer on their home team,” Bartlett said.
