The rally consisted of two games that got all Don Lugo students hyped. The games were played in between the awards presented to the students. The first game of the rally was to go on a skateboard and a plunger. The game was formed of four class men with the players going from one side of the gym to the other without picking up the plunger from the floor.
There were many games throughout the rally but one that caught the Don Lugo’s students attention was when one student from each class participates to try to untie frozen T-shirts they were given and had to put on immediately afterwards to show there pride of winning for their class. The Senior, Junior, and Freshmen class ended up losing the competition while the Sophomores won the game.
The Rally ended with the annual transition of Don Lugo students switching into their future class bleachers. All of Don Lugo staff participated in making a tunnel to say the last goodbye to the seniors letting them walk under the staff arms making the tunnel. When saying goodbye, the seniors were showing their emotions to all while walking through the tunnel. Seniors walked out of their last rally, letting the juniors move on to the seniors side taking their place for class of 2018.
