🦉💻⚔️ **CALLING ALL CYBER OWLS!!!** ⚔️💻🦉

🚨 **THIS IS NOT A DRILL!** 🚨
The keyboards are ready. The networks are waiting. The hackers are probably already making bad decisions…

Because **TOMORROW** officially begins the **2026–2027 HONDO CYBER OWLS CYBER SEASON!** 🎉🦉🔥

📅 **Saturday, August 29**
⏰ **10:30 AM – 12:30 PM**
📍 ** Public Library**

The Cyber Owls are returning to the nest, firing up the computers, and beginning another season of learning, laughing, breaking things, fixing the things we broke…and occasionally asking:

🤔 *“Wait…who changed the password?”* 😂

# # # 🦉 PARENTS & TEACHERS — WE NEED MORE MIDDLE SCHOOL CYBER OWLS!

We are still looking for **middle school students** interested in joining the Hondo Cyber Owls!

Do you know a student who:

💻 Is taking a computer or technology class at school?

🖥️ Loves computers and wants to understand how they actually work?

🔐 Wants to learn how to protect computers and networks from hackers?

🧠 Enjoys solving puzzles and figuring out how things work?

🤓 Or is simply the kid everyone calls when the Wi-Fi stops working?

**SEND THEM OUR WAY!**

They don't need to already know cybersecurity.

They don't need to be computer experts.

They just need to be curious and willing to learn. **We'll help with the rest!**

And parents, here's one of the best parts:

💰 **There is NO COST for your child to become a Hondo Cyber Owl!**

The Hondo Cyber Owls give students an opportunity to learn real-world cybersecurity skills, work as a team, compete in **CyberPatriot**, and discover just how far an interest in computers can take them.

Tomorrow we begin another adventure.

Another season.

Another opportunity to turn curious students into…

🦉⚔️ **CYBER OWLS!** ⚔️🦉

I can't wait to see everyone back at the Hondo Public Library tomorrow!

Until then…

**Keep Learning!**
**Keep Hacking…ETHICALLY!**
**And Always…**

⚔️🛡️ **CYBER LIKE A VIKING!** 🛡️⚔️

— **Coach Hall**
**The Cyber Viking** 🦉💻⚔️
