Spirit Week has always been a wild and crazy week  leading up to homecoming, and this coming week plans to be the same.

The theme of the 2011 Spirit Week is “We’ve got Spirit to Infinity and Beyond.”

Spirit Week kicks off on Monday with Pile It on Day. Wear as much Eureka clothing as possible can to help your class get off to an early lead.

Then be sure to wear pocket protectors, big glasses and high pants as EHS dresses up for Tuesday’s Nerd Day.

Wednesday plans to be exciting because it is Pirates vs. Ninjas day. Dress up like one or the other but be sure to leave the weapons at home.

 To follow up Pirates vs. Ninjas Day, the School is having a Snuggie Day. Also be sure to attend the Powder Puff Game as the Juniors and Seniors square off in a game of football and the Golden Guys cheer them on.

The proceeds of the Powder Puff game are going to be split half and half between Renaissance and Joplin.

Immediately following the Game on Thursday Night be sure to go to the Pep Rally in the Gym. 

Friday as always is going to be Purple and Gold Day. Dress up with purple and gold clothing, hairspray, beads and anything else to show your school spirit.

Be sure on Friday night to attend the football game and cheer on the Wildcats as they take on the Parkway South Patriots.

All these events lead up to the homecoming Dance on Saturday Night from 7-10 p.m. Tickets will be sold during lunch and the cost is $10 for a single ticket and $20 for a doubles ticket.

The theme of the Dance is “There’s No Place Like Homecoming” like the Wizard of Oz. Dress formally and be ready for a good time.
