Watching basketball games at Gardiner Area High School is generally a pleasant experience. The three-sided seating is unique among area gyms, and the atmosphere can be electric on the right night.

Both boys and girls teams are good this season, making it more fun for the fans, and the band often plays, ramping up the volume as well as the excitement. The snack bar, I might add, is also a good one. Just one small complaint though: No prgrams. I'm not talking about those booklets you pay a buck for that feature player bios (haven't seen any of those yet either). I'm just talking about your standard four page program that lists players on both teams, including heights and year in school. Most nowadays list freshmen, JV and varsity rosters for both schools. These are free and can be picked up when you pay admission.
That's all schools except Gardiner. In fact, I've never been to a school where they haven't had these programs, except at Gardiner. And I've been to a lot of schools.
This isn't the biggest deal in the world, but if "every" school sees fit to include programs for their fans, why not Gardiner?
They would make a nice addition to an already pleasurable experience.
