Hebron HS Musical

H ebron High School’s spring

musical production this year

is The Music Man, written

by Meredith Willson in 1957. The Music

Man is a story about a con man

named Harold Hill who poses

as a boys’ band organizer

in and leader in 1912 and

sells band instruments and

uniforms to the naïve Iowa

townsfolk, promising to train the mem-

bers of the new band. But, Harold is no

musician and plans to skip town without

giving any music lessons at all. Librarian

and piano teacher Marian Paroo sees

through him and inevitably falls in love.

Harold risks his life and career to be

with her. Come and support your Hebron

High School Drama Club to see how the

story unfolds. Director Jared Grigsby,

along with the students of Hebron

High School’s Drama Department,

are working diligently to

memorize lines, perform cho-

reography, and practice singing

the songs to make this the

best production yet. Up-

coming show dates are Fri-

day April 10th and Saturday April 11th

starting at 7 pm, and Sunday April 12th

starting at 2 pm. The Hebron Drama De-

partment hopes to see all of you there!

It’s that

time of

the year

again,

when the

weather

starts getting warmer and spring

sports are right around the corner.

Spring Break, one of the most antici-

pated breaks of the year, is coming up

the week of March 23-27. The students

and faculty love having the week to

recharge and get ready for the spring

season, whether it be for sports, aca-

demic pursuits, or just going on vaca-

tion with their family to get away from

it all. Many students and faculty mem-

bers take advantage of this break to

travel to warmer areas of the world,

and our athletes and coaches take this

time to prepare for their upcoming sea-

sons in baseball, softball, and track.

This is also a time when the seniors

have to get ready for graduation and

start planning for their futures. We

want to wish everyone at Hebron a

safe and fun Spring Break and look for-

ward to seeing you all back, refreshed

and recharged for the last quarter of

the year on Monday, March 30th!

BPA State Conference

National Honor Society’s annual Red Cross

Blood Drive will be on Tuesday, March 17th

from 8 am to 1:30 pm. Donating is very safe

and simple, and it only takes about 6-10

minutes. Remember, donating just one pint of

blood can save up to three lives, and someone

in the US needs a blood transfusion every two

minutes. Before donating, it is essential that you drink extra water,

eat full and healthy meals, and bring your picture ID. The mini-

mum age for donating is 16, and if you are 16, you will need par-

ents’ permission. Please support your school and community with

this amazing cause! Thank you for helping NHS, the American

Red Cross, and possibly three people in the US that need blood.

Hebron’s Business Professionals of

America Chapter will be attending the

State Leadership

Conference this

year in Indianap-

olis. The confer-

ence takes place

on Sunday,

March 15th

through Tuesday,

March 17th. The

students attend-

ing this year are

Kelly Steffan, Danielle Roeske, Maddie

Kleine, Mia Riese, Madison Sohaney,

Jourden Bixenmen, Rachel Young, Anna-

bell Folsom, and Krystal Yankauskas.

During the three day event, the students

will be attending leadership sessions

about college, personal finance, com-

munication, and entrepreneurship,

among others.

They will also com-

pete in various

events in which

they placed at dis-

trict such as Small

Business Manage-

ment, Advanced

Interview Skills,

and Entrepreneur-

ship. After the

State Conference is the National Leader-

ship Conference in Anaheim, California.

Hebron’s chapter is hoping to attend

this conference this May. Good luck to

all members at State and we hope to be

in California for Nationals!

Softball

The Hebron Softball Team has been preparing for their 2015 season since De-

cember, working hard conditioning and lifting weights to come out stronger than

ever. Coach Craig Doelling, along with JV coaches Scott Eriks and Shayna Dujmo-

vich, have been dedicated to their team since their arrival last year and have been

working with the girls year round in order to build a stronger team. Last year, the

girls went to the PCC Championship against their rival, the Boone Grove Wolves,

and this year they are looking to clench that title. Although the girls lost some

key senior players from last year,

their hard work in the off season has

prepared them to be a more strong

and unified team. Their first game

will be held on March 31st against

Lowell, and the Varsity game will

start at 4:30 pm, followed by the JV

game afterwards. Come out this

spring to support Hebron Softball!
