Please see the following message from the Walton Soccer Booster Club:

The Varsity Men’s Soccer team plays North Cobb Friday night at 7:55pm in Raider Valley.

This will be a great match with two of the best teams in the state competing.

We are planning a Pasta Dinner that will begin at 6:30 pm in the stadium. The dinner will include pasta with two sauces; meatballs; salad; bread and tea. And the cost is great! It will be $8.00 for adults; $6.00 for students; $4.00 for children and a maximum cost to a family of $30.00.

This dinner is a fundraiser for the club and will be a fun way to kick off the Men's first big home game. If you would like to join us, we are taking reservations for dinner. Please respond to winokurm@bellsouth.net by 9:00 am Friday morning.

Additionally, we will be raffling two tickets to the Hawks vs. Nicks game on February 29th. Each ticket is worth $115.00. Every Walton student or family member will receive a chance to win for coming to the game with your Raider Spirit! The winner will be chosen at half time.
