Support our Campaign
As many of you know we have lost our “Ultimate Panther”, Ken Pickerill, recently. Ken was an outstanding person, teacher and coach at OHS. He dedicated his life to our school and this community. Many of you have fond stories of “Pick” and how he impacted your life. “Pick” did everything he could to give our school the athletic facilities we have. Now it’s our turn to step up and continue his legacy by updating and repairing our facilities.
"Once a Panther, Always a Panther"
"Feed the Panther" is the All Sports Boosters Capital Campaign to raise $11,000,000 to update our athletic facilities.
