Friday TDHS Football opener at Wahtonka campus taking donations for fire victims

From North Wasco County School District:

The Dalles, Ore, Aug. 27, 2025 —This Friday, August 29th, The Dalles High School (TDHS) will host its first home football game against the Umatilla Vikings, bringing together students, families, and community members for an evening of school spirit and support.

In place of the traditional gate fee, TDHS is asking fans for donations to support those affected by the Rowena Fire. The effort is part of a student-led initiative to show solidarity with local families impacted by the recent tragedy.

The game will be held at Sid White Field, with kickoff at 7:00 p.m. Fans are encouraged to wear their crimson and gold to show their Riverhawk pride and help pack the stands in support of both the team and our community.
