Track and Field Access Reminder for this Weekend

This entire weekend, we need everyone to stay off the track and football field. The only people allowed on the field are players, coaches, statisticians, and those running the chains during the football game.

This includes the Pee Wee football game! Only players and coaches are allowed on the field. No one else should be on the field or track area.

- No kids playing in the end zones, on the field or on the track.

- No fans standing or sitting on the track.

- Everyone must stay behind the fences.

Senior Night Parents: We will have a rubber mats for you to walk across for Senior Night.

The track needs several days to fully dry and cure, so please help us protect the new surface by staying off the track and behind the fences.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us take care of our facilities!

Niobrara County Tigers:

Student Council wants to do a FUNdraiser - making and selling "Tiger Sports Cards." We want to do one for all our Tiger Athletes Past and Present (in High School).
So if you played a sport in High School for Niobrara County or Coached the Tigers please send a picture (action or candid) of you in that sport to Adele Hanson at Hansona1@lusk.k12.wy.us. If you played multiple sports, send one of each. Please add name, jersey number, and year of graduation. If you want to add more you can (height, weight, records, awards, stats, etc). We will make the cards (see samples below) and then anyone can purchase a set of Tiger Cards and see what athletes/coaches they get. We are hoping to get some from as many eras as we can (50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s and more).


Once pictures/information is received and cards are made we will send out more details on how to purchase these cards. Thank you!
