Boosting the Tigers' spirit

Coaches and players with Mountain Home High School's varsity football team continued a new tradition Saturday afternoon as they begin to push the team's "Tiger Bug" down Airbase Road as part of a fundraiser.

The second annual car push fundraiser started at De Meyer Furniture with athletes pushing the vehicle to the Mountain Home Auto Ranch on the city's north side with the city police and fire departments leading the way.

The Volkswagon Beetle was refurbished last year by the Mountain Home Charioteers car club and converted into a Tigers football helmet. The Tiger Bug will go on display around Mountain Home during the upcoming football season to let the community know of home games in addition to promoting other school sports.
