Update on no bus back to school on Friday

I spoke with the girls tonight and most didn't need a ride back on the bus to school after the swim prelims on Friday. There will not bus coming back to GRCH after the swim prelims, but we will still meet at 9:15 in the morning to go to the swim prelims. Those that do need a ride, we figured out others on the team whom they could carpool back with.

Concessions, New 2 you and the pasta party

If there are any parents who have NOT fulfilled their concession duty,  there are many openings left at the stadium. Please go to Sign Up Genius to find a time to help. They have at least two events left. 

In addition we have room for one more parent at New 2You on Friday night this week. They really appreciate our help and we get a pretty big contribution to our team. This is the only fundraiser that we have for the team. This money helps provide things like conference treat bags, Senior Night items, team parties, and other things. Please consider helping

Also, Senior parents should have received an email from Sign Up Genius about the Conference pasta party on 11/4. This meal is traditionally put together and hosted by the Senior Parents. If you did not receive that email, please contact Jennifer Schroder. (jennschroder@gmail.com) There are still some openings for this meal. Thanks so much!

Senior Night meal after the meet

We will be having a bigger room to use after our senior night (10/29) for our after meet meal and celebration. It will be in room HC 280. This is the large classroom down the hallway by the racquetball courts!
