Submitted by Judy Owens

The Maroon Army set to converge on SFA for the 6th time in 9 years!

Friday at 3:00 PM, Tiger fans need to have their voices primed and be present in Nacogdoches at the Johnson Coliseum for the Regional Semi-Final game vs. Martin’s Mill. The defending Regional Champion Tigers and Coach Todd Bodden will descend on the Regional field in search of their 6th Regional Title in school history and their second in a row.

A quick history lesson…. Since the Regional Tournament moved to SFA, the Tigers have appeared 5 previous times. In those 5 appearances, the Tigers have won the Friday match-up each time and advanced to the Saturday final each time, winning there twice.

This year’s field features some familiar faces and foes to the Regional Tournament. State powerhouses will clash tomorrow in the Division I bracket as perennial powers and the last two Regional Champions (Tenaha and Martin’s Mill) do battle. Also on the slate for the action is the State’s #1 ranked and three time Regional Runner-up Cayuga who will take on Avery in the late game at 5:00 PM.

Tickets are $6 for adults and $4 for students. Wear your Maroon… GET LOUD!!! And pull the Tigers back to Austin!!!!

Tenaha Students Kick Off Soles 4 Souls Campaign - February 25, 2010
Submitted by Judy Owens

Tenaha Elementary PALS (Promoting Achievement and Leadership Skills) organization has initiated their first project. Members of the PALS program, along with Tenaha Elementary GT students, work furiously to complete posters for the March 1st kick off date for the Soles 4 Souls campaign 2010. After seeing the devastation and suffering of Haiti victims Fourth grader, Jaden Washington, came up with the idea to raise money for these victims of the Haiti earthquake. Soles 4 Souls was the perfect organization to contribute money to.

Soles 4 Souls, inc. began as a small team effort to make a difference in people’s lives with the gift of shoes. The charity began shortly after Hurricane Katrina roared ashore the gulf coast of the U.S. A group of caring individuals and motivated charities created a website called KatrinaShoes.org in order to collect footwear donations from companies and individuals.

The response to the call for action was overwhelming. The charity discovered the need for basic footwear was immense. KatrinaShoes.org reincorporated as Soles4Souls, Inc., which has become an acclaimed international organization dedicated to providing free footwear to those in desperate need.

Tenaha’s Elementary PALS has made a commitment to get involved in making a difference in people’s lives. In conjunction with Soles4Souls, PALS will be able to send desperately needed shoes to the victims of the Haiti Earthquake. PALS has set a goal to collect $1,000. from March 1st-March 11th. This money will be sent Soles4Souls and used to get footwear to those in need.

The Tenaha Elementary Students will be collecting donations. You may also donate on the website www.soles4soulsfundraising.org, Under “Know someone who’s doing a fundraiser?” type in Tenaha. You can donate on line. Please donate today!
