HOMECOMING, PRESENTED BY KEY WEST FORD, ANOTHER HUGE SUCCESS
Even the rain couldn't dampen the spirits of the large crowd once again in attendance at Homecoming 2018, presented by Key West Ford. The pre-game party, featuring Paw Patrol, bouncy castles and games along
with the Alumni Flag Football game and tug-o-war event was fun for all.
Before kickoff Hyack alums Severio Asaba and Juan Cespedes unveiled a replica of the 2017 Provincial Championship banner which is now proudly displayed atop the press box. The football program also made a presentation to Heather Stewardson, wife of the late Stan Stewardson, who played for the original Lester Pearson HS football team in the mid-1950s, and was also an iconic basketball and lacrosse coach in the lower mainland.
At halftime the Vancouver Travelling Band entertained the fans, while members of the Royal City Hyacks youth football program played flag football games at halftime. Dave Betker won a 2003 Ford Escape, valued at $6800, the Sharp 43" Smart TV was won by an NWSS student.
Hyacks Football would like to thank Key West Ford, media sponsor the New Westminster Record, along with all other sponsors, parents and volunteers who made Homecoming 2018 another memorable event.
