(Seguin) — The Matador Family will be reuniting tonight with the second annual Back to School Bash. The Seguin ISD celebration will be the official kick-off of today’s Matador Football game at Matador Stadium.
Allison Seidenberger, Seguin ISD’s ACE director, says Matador families will be treated to a host of fun and free activities on the outside patio located behind the Seguin High School campus.
She says the focus is to simply bring the Matador Family together.
“Every campus and a lot of our district departments are represented as well as a little bit of community involvement. We do have some door prizes as well but the idea is just to bring our families together, to reunite, to celebrate the start of a new school year and there’s nothing like the energy of a Friday night football game and so we are excited to have some of our groups perform for the attendees and then also we will invite everyone to head over to the Matador Football game and support all of our groups that perform there as well. But it’s a great time to bring families and community together, have some fun and spend time together,” said Seidenberger.
Seidenberger says fun and games will be provided by every school and campus department. She says then together, families can walk on over to Matador Stadium for the game against Laredo United.
“Every campus and department has come up with their own booth. Some are food-based. Some are games, interactive items and the food is free. Nothing that we are doing at the event is a charge or a cost to any of our families. We want it to just be a time to come and enjoy and so we will have things like hot dogs and waters and chips, snow cones, popcorn and until things run out, we will keep serving and like I said, the games are all just interactive. It’s intended to be family fun and we will have little prizes and we also have the big door prizes so everyone who signs in and registers is eligible for a door prize and we have generous support from so many people in our community to make this event come off as well as it does,” said Seidenberger.
The Back to School Bash will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Kick-off for tonight’s football game is 7:30 p.m.
