We’ve got spirit, yea yea we’ve got spirit, yea yea! We’ve got a wha wha what what, we’ve got a SPIRIT CLUB! 
The week of September 15th started the kickoff of New Hope Solebury High School’s spirit club with a big help from the co-presidents, Nick Vandenberg and Katie Tangradi, and teacher advisors, Dr. Lengyel and Mr. Marchok. The first meeting was off to a great start with a shocking number of 20 students and more are still expected to join. All students are encouraged to come out and participate anytime during the year. Spirit Club is a branch of student government focused on showing school pride and supporting  school sports throughout the year. The objective of Spirit Club is to encourage students of New Hope Solebury to be more engaged in a selected boy and girl sport per season.
Selection for 2014-2015 school year is as follows:
Fall:
Boys’ Football
Girls’ Volleyball
Winter:
Boys’ Basketball
Girls’ Basketball
Spring:
Boys’ Lacrosse
Girls’ Lacrosse

To encourage students to attend more football games this season Spirit Club has attached a theme to each home game to dress in a unified way such as:
·      Friday, September 19 @ 7:00 pm: America Night
·      Friday, October 10 @ 7:00 pm: Wear it Pink Night
·      Friday, October 17 @ 7:00 pm: Lions Apparel Night
·      Friday, October 31 @ 7:00 pm: Costume Night
·      Friday, November 7 @ 7:00 pm: Pajama Night

Spirit Club is going to be extremely active with all sports during homecoming week and senior nights. Spirit Club will be connected with the seniors from each sport in order to decide a theme for each night.  The committee is hoping a lot of the community comes out and helps support our teams.  This asks anyone to just show up to the weekly meetings, and be sure to bring your spirit!
