Big week for Vikings’ sports

by Kate Long and the Orcas Island Booster Team

We are winding down fall sports, but not without the potential for playoff action! Thursday & Friday this week are BIG for Viking teams so wear blue and send your “Go Vikings!” vibes.

Thursday, Oct. 27: Soccer will play their last season home game, also their ‘Senior Game’ at 3 PM.

Thursday, Oct. 27: XCountry is off-island for Tri-Districts in Steilacoom, WA.

Friday, Oct. 28: Volleyball hosts the first round of District playoffs at home at 3 p.m. Tickets will be available at the door by cash (exact change greatly appreciated) or on the day of the event through GoFan (sorry, OI Booster sponsors are not able to use their coupon code for any playoff games).

Next week will determine playoff schedules. Check www.orcasvikings.com for updates.

Up Next: Basketball

And of course, Basketball season is right around the corner. The Paulsens have again offered to help organize ‘Midnight Madness’ when basketball teams can officially kick off their seasons. This fun event is filled with games and general excitement and is scheduled for November 13. Viking basketball games are already on the schedule; look for the new OI Varsity uniforms and renew your Hometown Ticketing Fan app or bookmark the OI Tickets webpage so you will be ready. OI Booster Family Sponsors, Business Sponsors, and Blue Sponsors—remember to use your coupon code when securing tickets for your Booster discount!

OI Sponsor Wall

Much of what the OI Booster Club is able to accomplish is thanks to our dedicated and generous sponsors. We will update the ‘Sponsor Wall’ in the HS gym soon. Sponsor renewals or new sponsors need to commit by November 10th to be included in the Sponsor Wall update. Read about Sponsor levels on our website and please get in touch if you have questions.

Go Vikings!
