This is it! For the third year in a row Placer has advanced to the Section Championship! Come on out on Saturday, December 1 to Whitney High School in Rocklin as the Hillmen face the Capital Christian Cougars! Kickoff is at 7:30 pm. Last year Placer won the Div IV Section Championship and this year they are looking to do the same in Div III.
The Cougars are the number one seed in the Div III playoffs and like our number two seeded Hillmen, they are undefeated with a 12-0 record so this has all the makings of an outstanding game!
Huge thank you to Depoe Bay Coffee Company and all of you who went there last Friday. The Depoe Bay Do Good Friday fundraiser generated lots of money for the Paradise Football players and coaches. You are all so generous!
This Friday, November 23, we will be raising more money for Paradise Football at our playoff game against River Valley Football! So don’t get too full at Thanksgiving because there will be some great new special menu items at the snack bar! 50% of the snack bar proceeds will be given to Paradise Football, and there will also be collection boxes where you can directly donate money and gift cards to the Paradise coaches and players.
As always, tri tip donated by Longhorn Meat Co. will be expertly barbecued, and we will also have burgers, pizza, pulled pork, and loaded baked potatoes. What’s more, this week we will also be serving assorted homemade soups served in sour dough bread bowls donated by Sourdough & Co! And you can top off your delicious meal with a piece of homemade pie!
The snack bar will open at 6 pm, so come to Le Febvre early and hungry!
