Jayton, Valley, Knox City, & Spur Scrimmage 2020

By Johnna Reynolds

Picture it. Jaybird Stadium. It's a hot Thursday night; I'm about to photograph my first scrimmage of the year. As I drive up, I'm asked to give the Cliff Note version of my life in ten seconds or less. As I drive through the gate, I notice that there is a caution tape running down the middle of the stands on both the home side and the visitor side. That's interesting. Four schools, four areas for the fans to cheer on their teams.   Together, yet apart. 

Seriously, it was great getting to be out on the field once again. Even though I was a big sweat puddle! I knew I missed watching all the action unfold through my little camera lens, but I didn't know how much until that moment. 

Although this season may look a little different, it's still going to be filled with the same picture perfect passes, awesome blocks, tackles, and terrific touchdowns. Every football Friday or Thursday is going to be so exciting! Who's going to make it to the big dance? I can't wait to find out! I'll be on the sidelines capturing each moment.
