New buses for the high school

[DCFan]

Who knows anything about new activity buses for the high school? I have heard 443 bought a new activity bus that the basketball team is taking to their games in Wichita this weekend. I was wondering if it is a painted activity bus like what Garden City uses or a coach - Greyhound style bus. Thanks for any info.

I'd call the school and ask - IF they have one - I'm sure they would be so proud of it they will tell ya anything ya want to know......... that stuff is public info anyway

Very sweet DVD player VHS player CD player all controlled by coaches and driver. nice comfortable seats bathroom not to be used. Not painted activity bus more like greyhound coach.. real nice smooth ride. Rode in it to garden. driver has to have special training.

Very nice.......let's treat these football and basketball boys like they're the kings they are. Maybe after a while, taxpayers will start to do more than just grumble. Gosh, when I did ride the activity bus as part of the spirit squad to out of town games, we rode on the most uncomfortable seats with our bag under the seat in front of us - and if there was a tape player, it was a personal one. USD didn't have that kind of money back then.

Bag of what?

The Wrestling and Baseball team used to have to "hitch a ride"!!

I bet that new "Greyhound Bus" is for G's shoppiing trips!

Dodge City needed a new one for years. There is nothing worse than sitting on a yellow bus going 55 mph heading to Salina for a JV track meet on a Tuesday night. Get home at 1-2 am then be at school the next day. Them were the good ol days.

I didn't say we didn't need one. I just said that all sports and activities should get to use it equally, not just the Football and Basketball Teams!!

and I didn't say you didn't need a bus, but come on.........all the bells and whistles - and special training to drive it? I know it's a pain to ride 50 mph all the way to Salina and have to compete once you get there. I was thinkin, though, that's why students were usually young'uns - you can stay up half the night and still get up the next morning.
