Hello Wildcats!
Homecoming is right around the corner on October 18th, and it's time for nominations to this year's homecoming court! If you would like to nominate yourself or others, please visit the millbrook events instagram page where you'll be able to find the nominations link. Tickets must be pre-purchased on gofans and the cost is $10. All proceeds are going to help those affected by Hurricane Helene so not only can you give the disco ball a reason to spin, but you'll be helping out those in need too.
