Mack Bowman of ERA American Real Estate is continuing his support for local students by sponsoring free admission to an upcoming high school football game.

  • The first 400 Choctawhatchee High School students will receive free entry to Friday’s game against Niceville High School, courtesy of Bowman and ERA American Real Estate.

“This is not just a donation, this is a continuation of commitment to supporting the youth in our community to grow, learn, and flourish,” Bowman said. “These kids are the future, don’t leave them behind.”

To take advantage of the offer, students must present their Choctaw Student ID at the entrance. The school expressed gratitude for the gesture, stating, “Thank You Mack and Linde Bowman for this generous donation. One Tribe. Go Big Green!”

This is not the first time Bowman has supported his alma mater. In October 2023, he sponsored free admission for 400 students to attend Choctawhatchee’s homecoming game. That event was also tied to the Alayna Bowman Memorial Scholarship Foundation, which honors Bowman’s late sister.

Bowman, a 2015 graduate of Choctawhatchee High School, has consistently shown his commitment to ensuring students have access to extracurricular activities.

The highly anticipated Indians vs. Eagles game will kick-off at 7pm on September 20, 2024 at the Joe Etheredge Stadium.
