From
the Desk of Susan Dobbins, Chair of Volunteers:
Thanks
to all of you for signing up again this
year to help the Pumas
have their best season ever! Without your
hard work, creativity and
sense of fun, I would not be here, nor
would our team do so well.
Please don't hesitate to call me should
you have any questions or insights about
fall's activities.
We
are in the process of compiling a new
handbook about job duties and scheduling
that we will have for you soon.
Coach
Ross has informed me that this year our
help will no longer be
needed with Gatoraid for the kids as the
team has grown and his budget has allowed
him to purchase the long-anticipated cooler
for the back of the truck. Great news!
He wanted me to be sure to pass along
to each of you his thanks for all we have
done in the past.
Please
read the schedule below for your assigned
day and make sure you swap with someone
if you have a conflict.
My
appreciation goes to Molly and Angie for
their willingness to serve as team captains.
They will ask for your help in periodic
tasks such as clean-up and the bake sale
that we hope will offset our initial inventory
costs. Angie has offered to put out a
sign-up sheet for what you'll be baking,
so look for her at the booth at the first
meet.
I
ask for your help in one additional way
and that is to recruit any
new moms, or dads, to join us this year.
We need their help and I know you will
tell them how much fun we have cheering
the kids on. Please tell me when you speak
with them so I can welcome them and give
them further instructions. My new e-mail
address is:
susandobbins3@mindspring.com
Thanks
millions again, to each of you, and I
look forward to seeing you at our first
meet, on August 23 at 8 AM, at Crossbow.
A
Puma howl and cheer,
Susan

Letter
from the Coach:
Thanks,
parents and friends, for helping us out
this fall by giving your time and spirit
to the team. Both are invaluable and I
want to say that at the beginning of the
season.
The
Girls' and Boys' teams have been training
hard, as you know, and you have been a
key part of that training. There is extra
momentum this year to excel, given our
new division placement. Though there was
some disappointment last spring when it
was announced, I believe the teams have
everything under control and are seeing
this change as an added incentive to giving
their best.
Should
you have any concerns that need to be
brought to my attention, I hope you will
not hesitate to e-mail me at the school
office: jseebring@chasin.edu.
Again, all my thanks for cheering us on
in all the ways that you help me, the
team, and your sons and daughters. We
have a surprise planned for late September
that I would like you to be in on, and
I will be getting back in touch with you
closer to the time.
My
wishes for a terrific season,
Coach
John
============================================
Training
Tip from Coach John:
Be
sure your guys and gals are well hydrated.
A bit of Gatoraid or Poweraid in water
bottles is often better than water alone
to offset the weakness from dehydration
that can come with summer heat and long
runs. Look out for chapped lips and cramped
muscles, a sign of dehydration.
