High school seniors and their parents are invited to a special tailgate called Thursday Night Lights at the Oct. 2 home football game at Hinds Community College’s Raymond Campus.

From 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., they can enjoy free hamburgers and prizes and speak with Hinds recruiters and administrators about admissions, scholarships, housing, majors and more. They can also visit with coaches from all of our athletic teams, as well as band, cheer and Hi-Steppers.

“This is a really fun event for high school seniors as they’ll have a chance to hang out with current Hinds students and faculty on campus, and they’ll get a glimpse of college life as they tailgate and cheer on our Hinds Eagles at a home game,” said Kathryn Cole, director of Enrollment Services.

As part of the event, they will also get free admission to the football game, which begins at 6:30 p.m against East Central Community College at Joe Renfroe Stadium on the Raymond Campus

Those planning to attend are asked to complete a form by going to the front of the Hinds website at www.hindscc.edu and looking for the Thursday Night Lights graphic.
