Naranche Ceremony

Former Butte High Bulldog football lettermen have a very special reunion each fall. There is a yearly meeting and induction ceremony where the new inductees are honored at a pre-game banquet, followed by an on-field ceremony prior to kickoff at Naranche Memorial Stadium. This truly is a “one-of-a-kind” group…the camaraderie between the “Bulldog Old-Timers” is something very special…BULLDOGS FOREVER!
