WEEK OF 8/11/14: EMBROIDERY, PANTS, DVDs, WEIGH IN, FAMILY LUNCHEON....

Hello there, Football Family!!

There is SOOO MUCH going on this week in our football world so please read this carefully so you don't miss anything:

JERSEY EMBROIDERY:

-Robynn Goodwin (Sam's mom) is heading up the  jersey embroidery.  We looked at other vendors but Robynn's neighbor is the best choice as she is fast, reliable, excellent, and local.  Provided we can secure our jerseys from Max Freestone mid-week, we hope to get them returned to us and in your son's possession by end of the week. 

-Please provide $26 (total for both jerseys) to Robynn TOMORROW (Monday, 8/11). Checks made payable to "Stitch on Stuff".

SPORTZ FILMZ DVDs:

-Please let me know either way (YES OR NO) if you will be purchasing the Sportz Filmz DVDs.  We are hoping for a commitment from 15 families to get the reduced price.  I need to order them by 8/15,

BLACK PANTS:

-Kim Merriam has talked with Scoreboard Sports (Colonial Square) about purchasing black pants in bulk.  For those of you still needing them, I will hopefully get information out to you Monday (tomorrow) when their group sales contact is in.

WEIGH-INS (Thursday):

-Weigh ins are THIS WEEK!  Thursday, 8/14.  Your son needs to be at the location by 5:30 pm.  If he misses weigh-in, he cannot play in the first game.  Location is still TBD.  NO PRACTICE TONIGHT.

BRAVE FAMILY PICNIC:

-The Brave Family Picnic is this Saturday at noon at West Bountiful Park which is off Pages Lane just west of the I-15.

Our team has been assigned the following items to bring:

• 5 Gal. Gott w/ 20 lbs. ice                              
• 4: Fruit (besides watermelon) service for 12                                           
• 2 Non-green salads (each service 24)  

Please let me know asap if your family is willing to bring any or these items.  These items need to be at the park by 11:55 AM so we can promptly start at noon.  

REMEMBER:  WE DO HAVE PRACTICE THIS MORNING FROM 9 AM - 11 AM. 

FUNDRAISER BASKET:

I need to deliver our team basket to Max on Thursday (8/14) after weigh-ins.  

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE start bringing me your donations for our basket which is a FITNESS / RECREATION / WELLNESS theme by Wednesday 8/13.     

Currently we have included in the basket:

• Personal Training Session
• 5 Free Passes to the South Davis Recreation Center

Would love to include other items such as:

• iTunes gift card(s)
• Massage gift certificate
• Yoga mat
• Water Bottles
• Protein Bars
• Sports stuff (like a football)
• Sports / Gym Bag
• Baseball Cap 
• Gift Card to Sports Authority, Big 5, Dick's, etc

TEAM PARTY (August 29th):

Ben Kjar, who spoke to our team two years ago, is an athlete, coach and amazing motivational speaker.  He is the gentleman that brought the "I AM THE VOICE" mantra and tradition to our games.   He will be joining us once again on Friday evening, August 29th at 8:15 pm where we will have our TEAM KICK-OFF PARTY and BBQ.  It will be a potluck at the Harper Home.   More information about that will be provided in the next week.  

I know that there is a lot of information to remember and that the additional costs to get the season rolling add up.  I realize that budgets are tight.  We are working on doing a team fundraiser to help offset some of these costs.  We will get information out to you about that as soon as we can. 

Please refer to the UPCOMING DATES column on the right to remind you of due dates.
