Archery hunting begins in early to mid-November when the deer start to hit the rut. It is a different, funny, crazy, and most importantly, an exciting time to hunt for a whitetail deer. During this time of the year the weather is great; the leaves are falling, the weather is changing to the colder months, the mornings are cool and crisp, and the bugs aren’t bugging your ears. The Squire recently interviewed one of Eisenhower’s own, Mr. Stimmell, to talk about the season. This is a huge season to a lot people who love the rush and the feeling of accomplishment when you walk up on that huge buck you’ve been tracking all year.
Entering the 2017/2018 school year, many frustrated Eisenhower High School students made the decision to take charge in their clubs and sports in an effort to boost school spirit in the student body. Some of the main groups involved include the Varsity Cheerleading Squad, Student Council, and Journalism. The students in these groups have been working together to reach out to the student body and get them excited to be a part of EMHS.
What were you doing in 1909? You probably weren’t born yet, but for some people it was the start of a tradition that would soon spread throughout the world. This tradition is known as Homecoming. Homecoming was started at a small college in Waco Texas, known as Baylor University. On stltoday.com, Chester Brewer stated they started the tradition as a way to, “urge alumni to come home for a football game against Kansas City.” Their Homecoming event included a football game, a gathering of alumni, a pep-rally, and a parade.
