October 14 @ 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Join the Mavs for a Spirit Night at Pok-e-Jo's Smokehouse on Parmer Lane on Wednesday, October 14, 5:00-8:00 PM. Please mention McNeil Football at the register. That is what tells them your purchase counts, and a portion of it comes back to the team. Wear your Mav shirt. If you do not have one, you can buy one there. Everyone in your party counts, so bring the whole family.
October 23 @ 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
Kelly Reeves Athletic Complex (home side)
Calling all future Mavericks! Elementary and middle school students who will attend McNeil High School are invited to run out of the tunnel with the team to kick off the Homecoming game vs Round Rock. The school with the most students registered takes home the Homecoming Tunnel Stampede trophy and bragging rights for the year. Feeder schools: Anderson Mill, Brushy Creek, Elsa England, Forest North, Joe Lee Johnson, Jollyville, Live Oak, Pond Springs, Purple Sage, Patsy Sommer and Wells Branch elementary, and Cedar Valley, Deerpark and Pearson Ranch middle. Registration is $10 plus Eventbrite fees and closes Wednesday, October 21. It includes the participant's t-shirt and a game ticket. Parent game tickets are NOT included; buy them in advance from Round Rock ISD Athletics. Every child who wants a t-shirt needs to register, even if they do not plan to run. Participants arrive at 6:00 PM at the Tunnel Stampede check-in by the HOME side ticket booth, at the stadium entrance off the main parking lot, to pick up their t-shirt and a wristband. At 6:30 PM JV players group them by grade and walk them to the tunnel, and the Stampede runs at 6:40 PM. Parents drop off and sit in the Tunnel Stampede bleachers on the HOME side, then pick up their student on the walkway at that same end of the field after the trophy presentation, where booster club members match wristbands. Feeder school families can gather beforehand in the Feeder School Tailgate Area in the main parking lot. Questions: boosters@mcneilmavericks.org.
