The fifth annual Homecoming walk/run will commence Sept. 6 at 10 a.m., with registration beginning at 9 the same morning. Attendees are to meet up for the race at the circular drive facing Main St. The money raised from this event will directly benefit four selected charity organizations including Chaucie’s Place, Julian Center, Joy’s House, and Keep Indianapolis Beautiful.

Fruit, cookies and water will be waiting at the finish line for racers. Also, four water stations will be placed along the route, according to John Love, coordinator of the 5K walk/run and Senior Class sponsor.

Currently, the Senior Class is leading in registration, with the faculty in second place, the Junior Class in third, and the sophomores and freshmen tied for the least amount of people registered.

“Last year we had approximately 400 people,” Love said. About the amount of participation is expected this year, as well.

“This is a great activity for CHS,” Love said. “It’s yet another example of how CHS students, faculty and staff give back to their community.”

Greyhound varsity football scheduled to play at home against Lebanon Aug. 29

The varsity football team here looks to keep their undefeated season going Aug. 29 against Lebanon. The game is scheduled for 7 p.m. at home, and ticket prices are $5 or all sports passes are accepted. Last year the Greyhounds beat Lebanon in the regular season and are hoping to do so again this year.

Even though the Greyhounds just came off of a nationally televised win against Cathedral, head football coach Mo Moriarity reminds the team that they have to stay humble. “We have to make sure that we get back down to reality,” Moriarity said. “We were kind of on a high winning against Cathedral, but we have to get ready to play.”

“One strength we had against Cathedral was our overall team depth,” Moriarity said. “On Saturday kids started cramping up and we played some kids off the bench, but we played a lot of kids and we have a lot of kids that can play. Hopefully our depth can bring us another win on Friday.”

Sophomores and juniors may prepare for the PSAT by attending the two-session prep class. In order to register, students must pick up a pink PSAT prep course form in the counseling center and have it turned in with a $30 payment before Sept. 19.

This course is designed to make sure that students will remember verbal and math concepts that will be on the test. Also, tips will be given on how to ease the stress by providing the basic format of the exam. It is important to do well on this test because it will be used by the National Merit and National Achievement Scholarship Programs.

“Even though this class is mainly designed for juniors, sophomores are welcome to take it,” counseling center secretary Patricia Barker said. “Juniors are more prepared for it than sophomores.”

Courses are available on Sept. 23 and 24, and they are also available Sept. 30 and Oct. 1.
