Hello Falcons Fans and Welcome to the 2010 Season

We are off to an exciting season! Thank you for being patient throughout the sign-in process!

We are in the second week of conditioning, and if your child has to make up days, make sure you get with your coach to get those dates made up. There has been one Parent Meeting, and we were glad to see so many of you there. If you could not attend, please take the time to get the updates from your team moms.

We have a several fund raisers that help offset the many costs that are not covered by registration fees. The Pizza Fund Raiser is specifically for this year. This is a particularly important fundraiser, and has been very helpful for those who are in need right now for funds to play football or cheer. As the economy continues to slowly recover, there are many more families in need this year, then in previous years.

You should have your pizza fund raiser flyers now. If you don’t have a pizza fundraiser flyer, please get one on Monday. Last year we raised over $1900.00 toward scholarships. Our Goal is to raise over $2000.00 this Year!

Another important Fundraiser is for the “End of the Year Party”. Anthony Palmieri is the head of fundraising has been giving out the raffle packs and wrist bands. This is our future. Please make sure you get your packet. Each of these keeps us going strong, and the greater success of the fundraisers, allow us to make the events such as the “End of the Year Party” a winner!

With all the excitement going on, we often just sit back in our chairs and watch the kids. Why not join some of the other parents and make a few laps every day? While the kids are conditioning, we can too. It clears the mind and frees the spirit.

One last thing! Make sure someone is there for your child! You must have someone on the field somewhere to help if your child has a problem. Get to know the other parent s if you have to work, maybe they can help. Remember we are not the Jensen beach drive by babysitting service. If we catch this behavior, we will be forced to report it to the parent liaison, which will follow through with a report.

Now let’s all get together and have a great time. This is the time to make new friends. You have so much in common with the people around you.

Till I write again!
