Chili Cook-Off has been postponed for Wednesday, September 23, 2015

Posted on by

Hi all, 
It has been decided after a great discussion that the Chili Cook-off scheduled for Wednesday, September 23rd be rescheduled to a future date in the school year. With Goochland ‘ s homecoming so early this year it has sent many into rush mode. Please keep this event in mind for our future date and let’s rock some chili for our Goochland Athletes. We want many family participants and many to come out and taste. 
 
The powder puff game will still take place on Wednesday.  Will It be a win for the senior girls or the junior’s? 
 
Thank you, 
Susan Doczi
Go Bulldogs! !!!
