SLHS Students: Keep Hands on the Bus, Win a School Parking Pass

A lucky South Lakes High School student has a chance at winning a school parking pass for 2015-16 — if he or she can keep a hand on the bus.

SLHS’ Leadership Class is holding its second “Hands on the Bus” contest Thursday morning. Whomever holds on to a parked school bus the longest wins the parking pass (if an eligible driver) or a $200 gift card.

Registration is at 9:15 a.m. The contest, in the student parking lot, begins at 10 a.m. Entry fee is $10, which benefits South Lakes’ Leadership program.

Later on Thursday, the school will host its sixth annual back-to-school block party.

The block party (4 to 7 p.m.) will feature representatives from South Lakes clubs and activities; food for sale from local restaurants such as Duck Donuts and Lucia’s); and other activities and entertainment.

School begins on Monday, Sept. 8.
