Jon: Senior Night - It was your poetic moment...Love, Dad

Senior boys Noah Tkach, Sean Maloney, Matt Rebovich, #9 Jon Rabenold and Conner Jamison along with Field Hockey players Jordan Homyak, Kacey Beck, and Echo Bretz



Just a few of the Senior Banners that lined Mahoning Street. 
A tip of the hat to Double R and his "Good Luck" mousehole.
 



It was your poetic moment

Without shape or form

Like the Lehigh without its banks

Without the push that flung the stars and dust

The same stars I still see

Brightly shining

In rhyme

Without reason

I walk into the light

You vanish

Submerge again

See your brilliance



It was your night

Unrolling the golden flow

Filling the valley

In your poetic moment

As we stood waiting for you


The Lehighton Cheerleaders started a tradition of decorating the homes of senior players the night before Senior Night.  Much thanks for this goes to Coach Lisa Sawyer and to her witty and talented daughter Hailey.

We held your hands

You your ginger

Springing steps

Finding your strides

Back and forth

Determined

Your last game



The birches

The flittings of Kinglets

The rest of the creepers

Spanning

Spreading

Blanketing the forest floor

Along the returning birches

Their vanishing forms

Becoming your guideposts


The Lehighton Alma Mater is sung with much more enthusiasm after a win.


A moment with Mom and Son. (Jon and Kim Rabenold)


Jordan Homyak and Jon Rabenold share a smile with the score behind them.

Move through, pass along

Near the dwelling I felt

You in your passing

I am touched

This wind it stretches

And raises the crown

The boughs reflect

The stirring the

Magical stitches



Stay on


Genesis


Stay on
