A new twist this year on the DUCHESS PEP ASSEMBLY. Instead of taking place at WHS in the gymnasium. it was moved outdoors to the football field! The candidates, escorted by their fathers, were introduced. The Band, the Crimson Dancers, the Cheerleaders, all performed! It was a beautiful day to boot!! Enjoy these pics from the event!

The annual WHS DUCHESS PEP ASSEMBLY took place Friday afternoon at WHS, just a few hours before tip off at the home Augusta vs Wellington football game and the coronation of the new duchess herself. The band, the cheerleaders, the crimson dancers all performed. The Duchess Candidates and their escorts made their "unique" entrances. A tug of war between the students and some coaches/teachers ended in shame for the latter. But, the fact they were outnumbered a bit, should soften that blow a little. :)
SPIRIT WEEK is drawing to a close but what a big day FRIDAY will be! Everyone is dressed in RED, there's the DUCHESS PEP ASSEMBLY @ 2:30PM today, the public is invited. (Public should arrive by 2:15pm for best seating.
Tonight's the big night - it's AUGUSTA vs WELLINGTON at Sellers Park and at halftime, a new WHS DUCHESS will be crowned. Congratulations to this year's DUCHESS CANDIDATES, Jacelyn Buck, Juliette Hyer, Taylor Meyer, Arielle Pottier and Skylar Troutman!!
The first PEP RALLY of the school year was held today at WHS! The Cheerleaders, the Band, and the new Crimson Dancers performed for the raucous crowd! All of the Fall Coaches introduced their teams to the student body and public guests. And then, in climactic suspense, the 2018-2019 DUCHESS CANDIDATES were announced!
The CRUSADERDOM has spoken and Logan Jones will now reign as WHS DUKE for the 2017-2018 school year. Duke Logan joins Duchess Lexi Saffell who received her crown during the football season - the two become part of a WHS tradition that began back around WWII - Congratulations Logan - Reign on Duke!
The traditional DUCHESS PEP ASSEMBLY took place Thursday afternoon out at WHS - ordinarily held on game day and coronation day (Friday), this year it was on Thursday since school won't be in session Friday. Big crowd on hand to meet the Duchess Candidates and their escorts, watch them compete in a game or two...the Cheerleaders kept everyone fired up along with the Crusader Band!!
