Brown County high school is honoring 50 years of Eagles varsity football with a special alumni celebration this week.

The 50th Anniversary Alumni Celebration for Brown County High School football is set for 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 11, at the school’s auxiliary gym.

The alumni event will celebrate former players, coaches, managers and staff of the football program over the past half-century.
