Honoring William "Rip" Scherer
As you may know, in early April the Moon Area School District Board of Education voted to honor William B. “Rip” Scherer, for his service, accomplishments, and contributions during his tenure as Director of Athletics & Physical Education for the school district. For this decision, we are grateful to the School Board, as well as to members of The William “Rip” Scherer Memorial Recognition Committee. The playing surface of the Moon Tiger Stadium will be dedicated as “The William ‘Rip’ Scherer Field” at a ceremony on the field during half-time of the Moon vs. Baldwin football game, Friday, September 14, 2018. (Kick-off is at 7:00 pm.) Come to the game, cheer on the Tigers, and honor Rip Scherer! To Read Rip's obituary from 2012, click HERE

Our family is thrilled, humbled, and honored by this declaration, and mostly so incredibly proud of our father for the 22 years he dedicated to the community. And we want to share this event and celebration with you, Dad’s dear family and beloved friends, colleagues, players, and coaches. We hope you can join us!
We’ll be sending a reminder closer to the date, but be sure to RSVP and mark your calendar today!
Warm regards,
