MOULTRIE, Ga. — As the Colquitt County High School Packers take aim at another state championship, the community is invited to come out and show support for the team.

A Community Pep Rally is planned for 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 7, on the Courthouse Square.

Sponsored by the City of Moultrie and the Colquitt County government, the rally will give local residents the chance to cheer for the hometown team before it heads to the GHSA Class 7A championship game in Atlanta.

In addition to the football team, the marching band and cheerleaders will participate in Thursday’s rally.

The Packers are scheduled to face the North Gwinnett Bulldogs at 8 p.m. Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. All the state championship games Friday and Saturday are to be broadcast on Georgia Public Broadcasting.

Tickets to the game are on sale at Colquitt County High today 8 a.m.-5:30 p.m., Thursday 8 a.m.-to 6:30 p.m., and Friday 8 a.m. to noon.

Tickets cost $22, but they include all four of Saturday’s games.

Hanging of banners in the stadium is against the rules, but Friday’s Moultrie Observer will include a wrapper supporting the Packers that you can take to the game and wave in support of the team.
