Hello Freshman Blue,
Game time this weekend is 12noon on Sunday, please plan to arrive at Clarkston High School at 10:15 am. Let's go BLUE!!!!
Mary Clark has sent out the volunteer reminders and we are still in need of help, please contact Mary if you are available @ clarks0408@comcast.net. Also, Mary has sent out info relative to a post game tailgate - we hope to see you all there!
I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the boy's performances and victories. This has really been a fun season filled with lots of great kids and families. I know Tom and I have enjoyed getting to know all of you. It is with that, that I want to share a little info with you relative to the upcoming events. First is our own Freshman Blue Banquet - which will be held Sunday, October 25th from 4-8pm @ Deer Lake Athletic Club. This is a family event and will be dress casual and focus on our players. We will have dinner, see a team video, listen to a coaches speech recognizing the boys (we have lots of surprises in mind). Finally, the boys will be allowed to swim and just "have fun" together. The cost of the event is not yet finalized, we will request family donations in order to include families. I will need rsvp by October 14. In support of one of the surprises for the evening, Karen Fluegel will be contacting you in request of some special information from your player. A quick response to that information will help us greatly. I am really looking forward to this fun event. There will also be a Chief's wide Organizational 40th Year Anniversary Event on Monday, November 9th @ Mount Zion where the team awards will be handed out including IRON MAN- there is no cost for this event, and this year no food will be served.
I hope you have all taken a moment to check out the Freshman Blue Site that John Heine has created...it is very cool, I include the link here. On the site you find great photos, game videos, newsletters and much more. John, we thank you for all of your efforts - this is fun!
http://chiefsfreshmanblue.blogspot.com/Please remember there was an extension granted on registering for the post season tournament in North Carolina - information has been handed out - though if you still have questions, please see me.
Returning Chiefs players please note - this is a great program that every 2nd year (or more) Chief should take advantage of! Please let me know if you have any questions are concerned with the deadline. Our own Stephanie Jensen is chairing this and can help to answer any questions - the boys earn a US savings Bond for their academic and social excellence!
