You’re Invited to the 5th Annual
Newport Harbor
Homecoming Tailgate
Friday October 24th 5-7pm
at the NEW “Bill Barnett” Pool
Celebrate the legacy of NHHS Boys & Girls Aquatics,
with special guests Kaleigh Gilchrist Class of 2010
& John Dobrott Class of 1976, see the renovated facility,
and then head to the Homecoming Football Game at 7pm!
After a year of renovation, the NHHS pool is now open! Join us on the pool deck at 5:00pm before the Homecoming football game to check out the upgrades and celebrate the long tradition of Sailor Water Polo & Swimming. There will be a presentation with special guests Olympian Kaleigh Gilchrist (Class of 2010), alongside All-American John Dobrott (Class of 1976), and Coach Ross Sinclair (Class of 2003).
Fill up on dinner from TK Burger while we catch up with old friends. Then at 7:00pm, we’ll walk over to the Davidson Field stadium for kick-off to cheer on Sailor Football and Coach Matt Burns (Class of 1994). We’ll have a reserved section of seats on the 50-yard line. Wear your Newport gear to represent!

This June, we recognized a record-breaking twelve students from the Class of 2025, and we were able to offer our 2024 winners a second year of support. If you have $5, $50, or $500 to contribute to the next generation of Sailors, we’d be so grateful.
