FLYER

Bring the whole family and watch your favorite Fox Mill teachers take on Sunrise Valley in an epic basketball game for the ultimate bragging rights! Immediately following the teacher's game, the FMES 6th graders will take on the SVES 6th graders (the girls will play first, followed by the boys game). This is an annual tradition that you will not want to miss. 

Tickets are on sale now! $7/individual or $25/family (up to 6 members) if you purchase now through March 7th on Givebacks. Tickets can be purchased at the door as well ($8/individual or $30/family).

Pre-order your pizza now through March 7th and it will be ready for pick up when you get to the game! Save money and purchase our "family meal deal" of 1 large pizza + 4 drinks for $18! Only whole pizza's are available for pre-order through March 7th; pizza will be available for purchase by the slice at the game. 

Don't forget to order your spirit pack! For $8 your student will receive 2 boom sticks, 1 Pom-Pom, 2 bracelets, 2 necklaces, and a paw tattoo. They will be delivered to your student's class the week of the basketball game. We have a limited supply to be sure to place your order before they sell out!

Purchase your raffle tickets now through March 7th! Raffle tickets will NOT be available for purchase at the game as the winners will be notified prior to the event. Students in K-2nd grades will have the opportunity to compete in a race across the court dribbling a large yoga ball. Students in grades 3-5 will be challenged to run across the court, put on a high school basketball uniform and sneakers, and then run back to make a layup. The K-2 competition will take place after the teacher's game, and the 3-5 competition will take place after the girl's game.

Students in K - 3rd grade are encouraged to sign-up for the "High-Five Tunnel" and to cheer on the 6th grade players and teachers as they enter the court to take on Sunrise Valley! Wear your Fox Mill gear and bring your school spirit! Arrive by 5:30 pm, all participants must have a ticket to enter the game.

If you've ever been to the 6th grade basketball game before then you understand what a big undertaking this event is and many hands are needed to pull this event off. Please consider signing up to help make this event a success. This event is a great opportunity for your middle or high schooler to get some of those service hours they need! Fox Mill will also hold a bake sale at the basketball game (sign-up is in the SUG below) and Fox Mill receives 100% of the proceeds from the bake sale.
