Student
spectators attending home or away basketball games without a guardian present
during games must be picked up or have pick-up rides in the stands by 8:00 pm
for each home and away event. Students attending the game
as a spectator should make clear arrangements to have a ride at the designated
pick-up time PRIOR to attending the game. If the game is not over at the 8 pm
pick-up time, the driver/pick-up ride can enter the game for FREE for the
remainder of the game to sit with the student in the stands. Students picked up
later than the expected pick-up time or with no pick-up ride in the stands by 8
pm could forfeit the privilege of attending future athletic activities as a
spectator.
