Officially the Colors are Brown & white. But someone in the late 70's decided gold would look good as a trim color, then someone else a little later changed the trim to orange. Then everything went orange - uniforms, t-shirts, everything. Our gym is "The Pumpkin Palace", the local newspaper lists our colors as orange & white, and everyone forgets the brown. I HATE THE ORANGE! HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT! whew, I feel better now. By the way, we are the Colts!

by the way, my wife teaches there, and I used to work in the schools through my CPS job. The basketball coaches and I are buddies, and I am involved in some other aspects, which explains my talking in the present tense, not the past.
