An Invitation to Military Personnel

I grew up in a Navy family. My father was a career Navy man and we moved from place to place every three years. My junior and senior years were at Patrick Henry while my father was stationed on the USS Enterprise based out of Alameda, CA.

Due to deployments and the fact my father was stationed out of town, he was only able to make one my football games. I never gave it a thought until recently, but I wish I could have done more for my father when he was here for that one game.

One of our players mentioned his father was coming back from a recent deployment in Afghanistan.

With that being said, I would like to extend an invitation to all my parents that currently serve in the military to watch the freshmen football games from the sideline as my guest. It is just a small token of appreciation to those who make sacrifices while ensuring the freedom of which we live under.
