Sherwood Sackers

By Kaleigh Homer ’15

Recently, a number of senior boys have taken up the hobby of hacky sacking during their free time in hallways and outside the Ertzman doors during lunch time.

The hacky sacking began when senior Riley Grimes brought a hacky sack to lunch one day and started kicking it around. Others soon joined him. “It’s fun, it’s relaxing and it’s convenient. It can’t get much better than that,” said Grimes. Since hacky sacking is not permitted in the school hallways the boys try to hacky sack only outside.

A Sherwood hacky sack twitter gives updates and shout outs to people who hacky sack in the community. The twitter was originally made by Grimes because Magruder also has a twitter for their hacky sackers, and the Sherwood hacky sackers wanted to create a competitive atmosphere between them.
