We recently started the next step of our trophy case project here at Underwood Public School. Step 1 started last year with our digital display in the commons capturing all our trophies in one organized place. Now, we are moving forward. At games held at Underwood Public School, everyone will have the chance to take any trophy in the multipurpose room for a free will donation. If you, or someone you know, would like one of those trophies, it is a first come basis. This opportunity will be available until Christmas break. At that time, these select trophies will be moved into long-term storage. Additionally, two of our trophy cases are now dedicated as "Comet Capsule" for historical comet apparel, trophies, etc. If you have anything that you would like to donate to the Comet Capsule, you can drop it off at the office and bring to the attention of Mr. Jangula.
