Today, the entire OGHS district wore orange to stand in solidarity with one of our own, Zach Bowers, a senior who is courageously battling leukemia. We want Zach and his family to know that we are fighting right alongside him and are sending strength, love, and positive energy his way. Keep pushing, Zach – your OG family has your back every step of the way! 🧡💪

Through the generous support of our community, we continue to make progress on the Stadium Renovation Project.
We embarked on a multi-phase renovation project beginning in 2022. We are excited that the 2nd of these phases will be completed this by this fall— and we thank everyone who has and continues to support the upgrade our facility as we look to provide future generations with a Home for All Titans. Already, the field turf improvement has been very beneficial to many School programs. We have made ~[60%] progress on the fundraising goal.
We are kicking-off the “12th Fan Campaign” and have several options to purchase:
~Physical Ticket – please reach out to Stadium Renovation Committee mebers or the Athletic Office if interested. Tickets can be purchased through cash, check, or Venmo.
~Raffle Box – this is a new platform that we are trialing (used by many major athletic venues) and the details can be found here: https://www.rafflebox.us/raffle/12fan
For local businesses – we are again offering 6 tickets for $1,200 which will include advertising on the gymnasium video board during all home games during the fall and winter athletic seasons.
This year we will draw the 12th place ($1,000) during the Home Football game on August 23 – so get your tickets soon! Each Home Football game thereafter will draw a $1,000 winner and the final drawings (up to $50,000) will be drawn during the final Home Football game of the season on October 11.
Please consider purchasing a ticket to help us upgrade our facility as we look to provide future generations with a Home For All Titans.
