Southside School District is excited to welcome the community to the new Southside Arena next week as the volleyball team takes the court for the first game in the new facility.
Along with a new home for Southerner athletics comes a new concession experience. The concession stand will be known as Shirley’s Kitchen, named in honor of longtime concession grill master, Ms. Shirley Foster.
Fans will still find some of their favorite game-night items on the menu, including famous cheeseburgers, popcorn and candy. Shirley’s Kitchen will also feature several new offerings, including The Southern, a fried bologna and egg sandwich, along with chicken tenders, brats and pulled pork sandwiches that can all be added in a basket with fries.
In addition to cash, Shirley’s Kitchen will now accept credit and debit cards for purchases.
As we open the doors to the new Arena, we invite everyone to stop by Shirley’s Kitchen, place an order and enjoy the new concession menu while cheering on the Southerners!
