Please read the statement below in regards to spectators. The 2 person/household limit has been lifted. This will go in effect starting with tonight's basketball games. There will be no spectators at tomorrow's wrestling tournament due to an inability to social distance between groups due to the large number of wrestlers, coaches, event workers already in attendance. The Upper Iowa Conference has created the following guideline in response to the Governor's latest proclamation in effect until February 6, 2021: Every spectator must be masked at all times when inside the facilities. Spectator groups must be socially distanced by 6 feet from other groups or as facilities allow. Fans from each school must remain on separate sides of the gym for seating or as designated by the host school Students sections will be addressed by individual schools with the students and all student spectators must be masked. There will be a student section for high school students only. Elementary and middle school students should sit with their family. Please call 245-1750 with any questions.
