Weekly Update 10/13/2014

STATE RINGS: I had some interest from parents and girls about getting state rings, so we will have a ring to purchase if you decide you want one to commemorate winning state.  I, along with the seniors, met with a Jostens rep yesterday to design the state rings.  We have 2 designs in the works and will receive the artwork, along with the cost of each hopefully by the end of the week.  Right now, we are thinking they could be anywhere from $150-$225 per ring.  The rep from Jostens is coming to the school next Thursday (10/23) at 4pm to size the girls.  At that time, he will need a $50 deposit (you can also mail this to him by the end of October).  This will act as a down payment and will go towards the total cost of the ring.
I know money can be an issue, and these are not cheap at all, but Jostens does offer payment plans.  He used Staley as an example from last year to help me understand.  They got their rings in January.  He kept any rings not paid for in full at his office until around June which were available for pick up as soon as the ring was paid in full.  A couple girls did not end up picking up their rings, so he just sends them back to the factory to be melted down, and they were only out $50. 
I will send out a picture of what the ring will look like as soon as I get it so that you know what you are paying for.  Each ring will be personalized with the girl’s name, along with “State Champions”, “2014”, and a cheer logo on the side.  You also have the option to get something engraved on the inside of the ring. 
I think it is a great way to commemorate the girls’ win, but please understand this is completely optional. J (this also makes for a great present around the holidays)
Please email me with any other questions!

PICTURES: You may have noticed Jina Chung, Kayley’s cousin, taking pictures down on the track of the girls at games.  This is a hobby of hers and she has done an amazing job so far!  Once edited, she uploads all of the pictures to a private shutterfly account for you all to view and print or order pictures if you would like.  The link is below along with the password.  Thanks, Jina!

 SICK?: If your daughter is sick and has to stay home from school/practice/game, in order to excuse the absence, we will need to have a doctor’s note.  Unfortunately without a doctor’s note, the absence will count towards one of the 4 absences for the fall season.
Also, if your daughter has not attended 2 or more full blocks of school for any reason, they are not able to come to practice or any games that afternoon/evening (per Mr. Erneste). 

FOOTBALL DINNER SIGN-UPS: Kelly Robinson, Bernadette Rabang, and Angel Reno (Jennifer Blumenthal also volunteered to help out!) will be in charge of our last regular season home game dinner.  Thanks Gypsy for dinner at St. Joe!
This is most likely not our last home game, so if you would like to volunteer for future home/away games let me know ASAP and I will get you those tentative dates!
