Please read and send this email to your teams. We are looking for at least one volunteer per team this Sunday the 29th from 8am-11am.

Email me and Steve Magnotti (I've cc'd him on this email) regarding your team volunteer availability.

Thanks for any help.

Commissioners,
 
Please forward Steve's message to all your coaches with a request that each team provide 1 volunteer (coach or parent) to this effort on the morning of October 29th.  All fields really took a beating the last two weeks with all the rain we've had and some serious reformation of the turf is required now so the fields will be in reasonable shape for the Spring season.  Although we had targeted November 11th for adopt-a-field work day, Rees and Elm Grove need the spot sodding sooner than that so it has a good chance of taking before winter's cold sets in (and sod unavailability until April/May in the Spring).
 
Our volunteer effort on the fields is in keeping with our developing partnership with PTP&R on its improved maintenance of the fields which this Fall has included cutting, aeration, fertilizing, herbicide treatment and over-seeding at all fields at various times / fields during August, September and October (along with deep tine aeration at Venetia).
 
Thanks for all your efforts this Fall.  I hope to see some of you (and many of your coaches and team parents) this Sunday.

Board Members:
 
We will be doing some work on Rees and Elm Grove this Sunday (the 29th).  The last day that sod is available this year is Friday.  The plan is to get a couple pallets of sod and to have a group work at each field so we can be done in a couple hours.  We will start at 8:00 and be done by 11:00, assuming we have enough voulunteers.  Please let me know if you are available so we can figure out who will work at which field. 
Commissioners:    Could you contact your coaches or anyone else to see if they can help? 
This is our last chance to repair the fields from this fall's play for next spring.  Realistically, not much can be done in March prior to the spring season's start, so please volunteer if you are able.  Thanks.
Stephen Magnotti

Commissioners,
 
Michele Harmel has requested that we circulate to coaches / parents the attached flyer regarding the Character Counts Annual Walk for Awareness.  This is an important awareness event regarding the fight against drug and alcohol abuse.  It would be great if some of the PTSA teams participate with players walking in their red PTSA jersey during the event.  Please pass along the flyer (attached Word file).

Character Counts is hosting its annual Walk for Awareness event in an effort to fight drug and alcohol abuse.  I have attached a flyer with the information about the event.  Please pass the information on to everyone you can.  Sports associations please pass the information on to the coaches and ask them to pass it on to the players and parents.  We hope to see you there!

Thank you for your support!

PTSA Board Meeting Notes 10/02/2006

Here are my U8 relevant notes from the PTSA Board Meeting from last night:

Sportsmanship Issue
There have been some issues at U8 games where kids are misbehaving during the post-game handshake. Please take some time to explain to your kids the importance of sportsmanship and what to say after the game. "Good Game", or other positive comments are acceptable. If any coach or parent witnesses negative comments or actions coming from the kids, please stop the handshake, have a few words with the kids, and then resume the handshake. Also, please make me aware of any future problems or issues.

Lost And Found
There have been many "lost" items found at the PSC (Peterswood Soccer Complex). A suggestion by the board would be to return any lost items to the Peterswood Park Recreation Center.

Adopt-A-Field
Please note this date on your calendar: November 11th, 2006. We are planning an Adopt-A-Field maintenance day. We are looking for volunteers to help repair and maintain our soccer fields for the spring season.
