We just heard -- our state medalist tracksters will be here a little after 5 p.m. Line Wilbarger and let them know how much support they had and how proud we are of them as they are led down Wilbarger by our Vernon PD, Vernon FD, and Wilbarger County Sheriff's Office. Then follow them to the fieldhouse and congratulation them!
Get ready to welcome back our State Track & Field Medalists!! They will be escorted down Wilbarger by Vernon Police & Fire Departments, as well as the Sheriff's Office! Wave, honk your horns and follow them on to the VHS Fieldhouse. They should arrive at approximately 3:45 p.m. That time is tentative. As soon as we have a definite time we will repost. Keep a lookout. We have 7 state medalists!!!
