The Bowie High School Athletic Booster Club has announced sales for a pair of beef drawings have begun.
Bowie student-athletes are selling tickets throughout the community and area as part of a fundraiser.
The cost of tickets are $5 for one and $25 for a book of six tickets.
The high school and junior high student that sells the most tickets will receive a gift card.
“Pink Out” towels also will be sold at $5 each. The towels were expected to arrive for sale late this past week. They will be offered at the concession during upcoming sporting events. Two-hundred towels were ordered.
Bowie High School girls’ basketball coach Colby Davis-Pastusek announced the first scrimmage is set for Nov. 5 at Eastland and the first regular-season game on Nov. 17 at Burkburnett.
In addition, there are still tickets available for Dallas Mavericks games versus Utah on Nov. 20 and Denver on Nov. 28. Those are the dates Bowie will play games at the American Airlines Center in Dallas this season.
The boosters wrote a check to cover the purchase of new reversible game jerseys for the Bowie Junior High School boys’ basketball programs. Fifty sets were purchased.
Head football coach Dylan Stark didn’t have any requests, but he said offensive and defensive lineman Stone Bloxham was cleared to play varsity by the University Interscholastic League.
