Dear Plano Reaper Football Alumni,
We hope this message finds you well and that your Reaper pride is as strong as ever! We are excited to invite all Plano Reaper Football Alumni to join us at Reaper Stadium on Friday, September 13th at 7:30 PM for the “War on 34” against our longtime rivals, the Sandwich Indians.
This is more than just a game—it’s an opportunity for all of us to come together, relive the glory days, and cheer on the current Reapers as they carry on the tradition of excellence that you helped establish. Whether you played last year or decades ago, you will always be a part of the Reaper family, and we’d love to see you in the stands showing your support.
We’ll have a designated section for alumni in the north endzone, so please arrive early to reconnect with old teammates, coaches, and friends. Be sure to wear your Reaper gear and bring your energy as we root for another Reaper victory!
