Important Touchdown Club Meeting

The Tornadoes have a plan to win the football game and the Touchdown Club has a plan to win the party! Come help us prepare for the very big, very important game at home this week against West Jones High. We will meet, just like every week, Tuesday evening at 6:30PM in the Library.

We will honor former Tornadoes, football players and cheerleaders, in a pre-game ceremony. Spread the word! Meet at 6:30PM Friday night in the Jimmy Bass Memorabilia Room. The ceremony will be at 6:45PM, at mid-field.

The Touchdown Club needs your help. This will likely be the most well attended of the season. Both Laurel and West are 3-0! Come Tuesday and Friday if possible.

3 - 0!

We won again; convincingly beating Biloxi, 36-16. Kenrick Kennedy had a terrific game! Congrats to Coach Smith, the Coaching Staff and the Team. Next week: WEST!

The Jug Stays at LHS!

Wow! Friday Night was great! We kept the L’il Brown Jug for another year and we extended our supremacy in the 86 year battle to 46-36-4. For the 2007 season, that makes two games down, eight to go. It’s great to be a Laurel Tornado!

The inaugural tailgate at Watkins Woods was a huge success. A Big Thanks to Jerry Gilbreath for the use of his property; and a special word of thanks to Jamal Bender, Malcolm Carmichael and Stan Riles for their extra efforts in readying the site. Donnie Bergin helped out above and beyond the call of duty with his front-loader. Thanks also to Bo Asmar, Bob Billingsley, Eric Green, Richard Green, and Jeff Moss for their generous assistance.

A Mighty Golden Tornadoes’ thank you goes out to Kim Hosey for a great looking Program/Media Guide. The new Programs look great. Be sure to tell Kim how much you appreciate her extra efforts.

Don’t forget to get your Centennial T-Shirts and LHS Auto Flags. Flags and Shirts are both $10 each. Thanks to Pam Sampson for her help in getting the job done. Shirts and flags will available for purchase at the regular Tuesday meeting at the LHS Library, and at the Biloxi game Friday night.
