Dear St Paul Community:
Beginning Tuesday, Nov. 2nd food will be prohibited (including Candy) in the St Paul High School Gym during athletic events. Drinks will continue to be allowed. Please remember to replace your face mask properly after taking each drink. This step is being taken in order to support student athletes by cooperating with the OSAA requirements to properly wear face coverings and to avoid the possible disqualification of our team. We appreciate your continued support.
Go Bucks!
