On Saturday, June 1st, the PHS band is hosting a new event that we hope to make an annual run!   We are hosting a 5k run called the "Zombie Chase 5k!"

This event will be a 5k run starting at the PHS stadium complex and running through the local city park trails.   The twist to this run is that there will be several "Zombie Zones" with costumed zombies that will attempt to steal "Life Flags" from your belt!  Each runner will have a rope-style belt with 5 paper flags attached.   Runners must attempt to complete the 5k (run or walk) with at least 1 Life Flag attached!

All runners are awarded medals, but the goal is to be a "SURVIVOR" with at least 1 Life Flag left attached to your belt when you complete the race.   The zombies goal is to attack and steal your flags while you complete the course!

We have had a huge support with our website and Facebook pages for the race.   If you would like to participate, the entry form is here and the liability form is here.   Please, share with anyone you might know that would be interested in a really fun 5K run.   Entries received before the race will be $35.  On site registration is $40.

The website for the race is:  www.zombiechase5k.weebly.com    OR   you can also visit the website through the band website at:  www.prideofplymouth.com.

The Annual Cafe Jazz Festival is this Saturday, May 18, 2013.   The PHS multi-purpose gym will be transformed into a jazz nightclub for one evening!  Come and enjoy dinner and some great jazz music on Saturday!!

Performances begin at 6:20 p.m. and go until nearly 10:00 p.m.  This year, we have the largest participation with TEN high school and middle school jazz ensembles from Northern Indiana.

Tickets for the event are $10 and include the all-you-can-eat dinner buffet with appetizers, salad bar, pasta bar with multiple sauce choices, and desserts.   

There is also a large silent auction on dozens of donated items from community members and local businesses.  Tickets are available at the door at 5:30 p.m. and are available throughout the evening.

The Oliver Ford family will again be hosting a "Drive-4-UR-School" event this SATURDAY, May 18, 2013,  from 9:00 to noon!   This is the easiest and best fund-raising event that we do!

Every Ford car that is test driven, will earn the music boosters $20!!  No sales, no pressure... just a test drive and a questionnaire about your experience.  It takes no more than 10 minutes to earn $20 for the music programs.  And, it’s FUN to drive a new car and see all of the new technology!

On that day - from 10:00 to noon, we will also be serving the AMAZING Bruce's Big Grill BBQ dinners!  Dinners are $8 and include the big pulled pork sandwich, beans and slaw!  If you have never had this fund-raising meal, it is DELICIOUS!

Please, take a few moments to come out and support our music programs!!

He has also been named NFL Coach of the Year and the National Federation Coach of the Year.

This Saturday, May 18, 2013, the PHS Acting Class will be holding our 17th annual One-Act Play Competition.  We have a twist this year.  Usually seniors are the directors, but this year we have three juniors who are directing!  

In doing so they have left their comfort zone of being "on stage" to now being in charge and having all of the responsibilities "off stage."  Three One-Acts will be presented during the afternoon, with awards afterwards.  The performances will be in the PHS Studio Theatre, just behind the auditorium, and are FREE.  

Please try to come to see as many of the shows as you can.  The first show starts at 1:00 p.m.  The shows are about 35 minutes each with an intermission between to allow for set changes.  This also allows the audience to come and go as they wish.  For the schedule of the day, with the directors and cast lists click here.
