Join Us for the Scarlet & Gray Scrimmage: A Wildcat Tradition Honoring Coach Kinnune

Every August, the Snoqualmie Valley community gathers under the lights at Mount Si High School for a beloved tradition: the Charlie Kinnune Scarlet & Gray Scrimmage. This spirited event, scheduled this year for August 29 at 6:00 PM at the Mount Si Stadium, marks the unofficial kickoff to the Wildcat football season and celebrates the legacy of longtime head coach Charlie Kinnune, who led the program for 30 years.

What to Expect:

Full-Team Scrimmage: The entire Wildcat roster hits the field in a friendly but competitive intra-squad game, split into Scarlet and Gray teams. It’s a chance for fans to preview the season’s talent and for players to showcase their hard-earned skills.

Community Spirit: Families, alumni, and future Wildcats pack the stands to cheer on the team. It’s more than football—it’s a celebration of school pride and community connection.

Honoring Coach Kinnune: Though retired, Coach Kinnune’s impact continues to shape the program. His name graces the event as a tribute to his decades of leadership, mentorship, and dedication to Wildcat football.

Meet the Seniors: Junior Wildcats and younger fans often get the chance to meet senior players after the game, fostering mentorship and excitement for future seasons.

Concessions & Fun: Grab a snack, wear your red and gray, and enjoy the festive atmosphere as the Wildcats gear up for another season.
