DOOR TO DOOR Sophomores Kristie Tong and Grace Wang walk through the Frank H. neighborhood selling tickets for the chicken dinner that the Speech and Debate team is hosting.
Speech and Debate students sold tickets and prepared for the 55th annual chicken BBQ dinner. It will be held tonight, prior to the Homecoming game. However, food preparation begins early in the day when Nelson’s, catering company, cooks the chicken outside of the cafeteria.
“Students used to help by turning the chickens throughout the day,” said Mr. Jordan Mayer, speech teacher. “However, these days, Nelson’s Company handles everything.”
The Speech and Debate team receives assistance from organizations including Rise and Roll Bakery, Just Desserts, and Strack and Van Til.
“It’s a staple to our school and to homecoming in general,” said Kameryn Hubbard, “Not only does it help us fundraise but it also helps us get in the groove.”
