Football Team Leads WHS Campus Beautification Efforts
Let’s all give a huge shout out to our amazing football team volunteers who spent several hours on a hot Saturday rolling up their sleeves to pull weeds, trim tree beds, and spread mulch!
Together with our July workday crew, they’ve got our campus looking sharp and ready for day one. Taking pride in our campus – that’s the “Waltrip Way!”
