Howdy Back Mac is a Western themed event that student council hosts at the beginning of every year. This recently added tradition was started to bring everyone together and to build school spirit. Students enjoy a variety of activities such as climbing a rock wall, dunking a teacher in the water tank, playing on an inflatable, and this year a dance was added. Also, the ever popular tug of war pits one class against the other with the winner claming bragging rights each year. This has become a great way to kick-off the new school year compliments of StuCo.
