Community members are encouraged to participate in Lake Forest High School Homecoming Weekend. The homecoming weekend will kick off today at 6:30 p.m. with a Booster Club sponsored BBQ; at 7:30 p.m., the Parade of Athletes (recognizes each fall team) will be presented along with the Crowning of Queen and King – all at LFHS West Campus Varsity Field at 300 Waukegan Road, Lake Forest.

Waukegan Road, Lake Forest at Varsity Field with sophomore game beginning at 5 p.m. and Varsity begins at 7:30 p.m. The Student Council Sponsored Annual Homecoming Dance will be on Sept. 24 at 7:30 p.m. in the Competition Gym at LFHS East Campus. All students attending will enter the doors at the back of the school by Athletics. Doors will open at 7:30 p.m., and the dance runs until 10:30 p.m. Tickets will be available at the door for $10 per person. Students must have an ID to get in the door and only LFHS students will be admitted. Attire for this dance is “dressy casual.” This is a highly attended dance so don’t miss out on the fun!
Auditions for frosh/soph plays
Auditions for “The Frog Prince” and “Adaptation” for LFHS freshmen and sophomores will be held Sept. 27. Elaine May’s “Adaptation” and David Mamet’s “The Frog Prince” will be performed on Nov. 17, 18 and 19 in Lake Forest High School’s David Miller Theatre. Both May, often partnered with Mike Nichols in a comedy team at Second City in the 1960s heyday of that theatre company, and Mamet, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Glengarry Glen Ross, were and are huge influences in shaping the face of theatre in Chicago. “Adaptation” is a game show featuring the hapless Phil Benson who struggles through the 1960s to find meaning and security in his often-frazzled life. “The Frog Prince” is a fable exploring rank, loyalty and the quest for true love. Auditions for freshman and sophomore actors will be held in the David Miller Theatre on Sept. 27 from 3:20-6 p.m. Barbara Papp will direct, with Brad Balonick serving as technical adviser. Audition materials are available in the counseling office. Students will be asked to prepare a brief memorized passage for the audition process. Contact Barbara Papp (bpapp@lfschools.net) for more information.
Late start day
Sept. 28 will be a Late Start Day and classes will begin at 9:50 a.m. Buses will run two hours later than normal.
Junior Parent Meeting
There will be a Junior Parent Meeting, College Kick Off Part 1, on Sept. 29 from 7 - 9 p.m. in the Raymond Moore Auditorium at LFHS East Campus, 1285 N. McKinley, Lake Forest. There will be break-out sessions with LFHS counselors after the presentation. A re-cap of this meeting will be held on Oct. 3 from 9 -10 a.m. in room 113 at LFHS East Campus.
LFHS celebration
The Lake Forest High School Association of Parents and Teachers (APT) will host the annual “Be True To Your School” Autumn Social Event and Fundraiser on Oct. 22. All LFHS parents are encouraged to attend. The reservation deadline is Oct. 7. Invitations have been sent by mail to all LFHS families. Information and invitation RSVP forms can be found at www.lfhs.org. Any questions can be directed to APT parent volunteers, Erin Foley (foley.e@comcast.net) or Kathleen Hanson (rkewk@aol.com). A wildly popular, soldout event in 2010, the evening, which includes great conversation, dinner and dance music will take place in the tent at Lake Bluff Golf Course. This year’s affair will be a chance for parents and neighbors to kick-off the year right with a night of social camaraderie and an opportunity to recognize and celebrate all that makes LFHS special and such a wonderful place for the young people of our community. Following a long tradition of past events, the evening will once again raise funds for the student-led Class Treasuries through a raffle and live auction. In addition, this year’s celebration will also offer an opportunity to raise funds to allow the entire LFHS campus to move to a completely wireless environment. We encourage all to send in reservations early to ensure a spot in the tent.
Citrus sale
LFHS Balladier Singers, Concert Choir and the Forester Singers are going to Italy this year to perform in the Vatican in Rome and in St. Mark’s Cathedral in Venice. To raise funds for this trip, they will be selling citrus. The citrus sale is from Sept. 16 – Nov. 1. More information and on-line ordering can be found at www.lfhs.org.
Booster campaign
The Lake Forest High School Boosters have initiated a “Diamond Anniversary Campaign” to fund synthetic turf fields and track-and-field facilities at East Campus. They will help lead a capital campaign to privately fund the construction of a new, state-of-the-art, multi-purpose sports complex at the site of historic Lindenmeyer Field on Lake Forest High School’s East Campus. The new, yet-to-be-named sports complex will be comprised of two synthetic turf fields, a new track and field facility, spectator seating and press facilities for use by LFHS teams and wellness programs, youth and club sports programs and other community events. More information can be found at the Booster website: www.diamondcampaign.org/index.html.
Kick-a-Thon fundraiser
Lake Forest High School Varsity Dance Team Partners with Boys & Girls Club of Lake County to “Kick for Kids.” The Boys & Girls Club of Lake County and the LFHS Varsity Dance Team invite the community to join them and to “kick for kids” at their 2nd Annual Kick-a-Thon fundraiser benefitting both organizations on Sept. 30 during halftime (game begins at 7:30 p.m.) of the Varsity football game at LFHS West Campus. Since 2006, the Varsity Dance Team has partnered with the Boys & Girls Club of Lake County by organizing dance clinics for K-eight students in their after-school programs and summer camps. Come cheer on the children of the Boys & Girls Club, the Dance Team, and a variety of LFHS teachers, staff and other volunteer community members as they kick 100 times in a row during halftime activities.
