Don Lugo held its very first rally of the semester on Friday the 10th, the theme for this rally being a Disney Park theme and had a lot of games. This rally announced the sports that were coming this winter including several sports like Boys and Girls Soccer, Girls Water Polo, Boys Wrestling, Girls Basketball, . The event started off with a performance of “Fade into You” by Mazzy Star from the guitar club. Jacob Orscoco, Senior, states, “[The] rally was fun and cool and I love hanging with my friends during the rally and its fun.”
The rally started with its first game, a relay race, in which a person had to throw a hula hoop into a chair and whoever did that the most won. The grades that took that win were the Freshmen and Juniors. One of the games that was also in the rally was where a student had to eat a pretzel from Sam’s Club and then shortly after that student ate it the next student would eat a pop tart. The Senior class took the win.
In this rally they brought out a new game, a trivia game hosted through the site Blooket. The prize for winning the Blooket was credit to buy snacks at the student store. In a game where the Senior class faced off the Junior class, a race to whoever can get to the chair first, consisted of two opponents on a skateboard in which the Seniors won. The rally also included a performance from the Don Lugo Dance Team which danced off to the music. Eyan Orscoco, Senior, said, “This is a first for the books of using Blooket which [led to] an awesome rally.”
