Family Involvement

We are looking forward to this season being a fun and special time for both our kids and for us as well. During the season, family involvement is crucial to making this happen, here are some areas that we will need some help with:

Concession Duty
All families must volunteer their time at least twice during the season (this is for home games only)

Homecoming Parade
Two or more volunteers are needed to help coordinate

Cheerleading Gifts
You may volunteer to help buy, assemble, deliver or give ideas

Caravans
We will arrange at least two caravans when we have away games. We will decorate our vehicles, have some food before we leave and then caravan to the game together.

* Please see Suzann to volunteer for any of these activities.

Team Collection - $25

We will collect $25.00 per family for the following:

* Team drinks at each game
* Admission for players and coaches at away games
