🏈 FRIDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL: CUBS VS. ARLINGTON

We’re excited to confirm that Sedro-Woolley High School will host Arlington High School at 7 p.m. September 11! 💙🤍

Track resurfacing work is still underway, so fans will notice some temporary changes to stadium access Friday night. Please plan ahead, follow marked walkways and respect all caution tape to protect the new track surface and help keep everyone safe.

🎟️ TICKETS
We highly recommend purchasing tickets online before the game to skip the ticket booth lines:
https://swhscubsden.com/home/68215f63718093eb9313e687

Northwest Conference admission prices are:
• $5 — Senior citizens (62+), military, children, elementary and middle school students, and visiting students with ASB
• $7 — Adults and high school students without ASB
• FREE — SWHS students with their ASB card

Online purchases include an additional $1 platform fee, making online tickets $6 and $8, respectively.

🚧 TRACK & STADIUM ACCESS
The track resurfacing will not be complete by Friday. A portion of the north side of the track will have a new surface but will not yet be usable. This area will be blocked with caution tape. Please do not enter or cross the restricted area, as doing so could damage the new surface.

Designated walkways on the east and south sides of the track will also be marked with caution tape. Please stay within the designated routes.

🌭 CONCESSION STAND ACCESS
Because of the track work, access to the south side of the concession stand from the home grandstand will be different than usual. Fans will need to exit through the gate to the practice field to the right of the grandstands, toward the back of the C Building, and walk across the grass.

Please note that this route is not wheelchair accessible. We apologize for the inconvenience. An accessible pathway will be available to the north side of the concession stand.

We also ask for a little extra patience at the concession stand Friday night. The stand is operated by Senior Parent Group volunteers, with proceeds supporting senior week activities for the Class of 2027. This will be their first home football game of the season, so please thank them for giving their time to support our students!

📣 GAME-DAY REMINDERS
• Cascade Middle School students and other younger students must be accompanied and supervised by an adult.
• Keep walkways and common areas clear.
• Alcohol, drugs, smoking and vaping are prohibited on all school district property, including parking lots.
• Students who leave the venue will not be allowed to re-enter.
• Large bags and backpacks are not permitted. Small purses for personal items are allowed but may be subject to search.
• No outside food, beverages or balls are permitted.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation as we host our first home football game while the track project is being completed. Please respect all caution tape, marked walkways and restricted areas throughout the evening.

Go Cubs! 🐻💙🤍

As America approaches its 250th birthday, it's a great time to talk with children about civic responsibility and community service.

Events like our very own Fourth of July Loggerodeo, Footrace, and Rodeo happen because volunteers dedicate countless hours to making them successful.
