Thank you to everyone volunteering at the Varsity home game tonight!
Varsity parents – we still need parents for the Snack Bar and Merchandise Table at the 9/9 Freshmen and JV games. If you can’t work on 9/9, there are plenty of openings for the next 2 September home games. Freshmen and JV only have 5 home games this season of which 3 are in September.
JV/Freshmen parents – we still need 1 more Freshmen Chain Gang volunteer for the 9/9 game. Chain Gang are the parents on the sidelines of the field managing signal poles. No experience necessary! You’ll be told what to do. We also need many volunteers for the last September home game for Varsity on 9/17. After that we only have 2 more Varsity regular season home games.

If you open it on your computer, use the Calendar View. That button is in the green header, right below where it says “created by Juliana Yaskin”. Just find the game you want to work and click there. All openings will show. For some reason the regular list view on a computer shows Varsity openings multiple times. You can sign up that way, but it’s confusing. If you open it on your phone, everything shows correctly. One day I might even figure out what is going on with it!
Thank you for your help. We honestly couldn’t do this without your support!
Hope everyone has a wonderful long weekend!

I know our Home Varsity games are very front-end loaded, but that’s the schedule. Please take a look and see if you can knock out your snack bar obligation this week or next. Thank you!!
