Alright everyone,
We are heading into the final stretch of sort. Heres the lowdown for this week:
-CONGRATS! to everyone who competed at the Frankenmuth Tournament on Saturday. Many of you were taking 2nd and 3rd place in your prelim rounds! Angel and Taylor both broke to Semis and Taylor broke to finals and took 6th overall.
– Tournament this Sat at Grand Rapids Christian High Scool. YOU NEED TO LET ME KNOW THAT YOU ARE COMPETING BY TUESDAY! I know that the deadline is a little close, but we lost alot time with that whole week where we had no practice.
– Speaking of which. It was very apparent to me that many of you did not go over your pieces during that week. You are EXPECTED to be practicing at home, especially when you are not at school.
– After GR Christian is Midland on the 10th. This is always a fun tournament and the last chance to compete this season.
– Many of you have met her already, but welcome to Mrs. Kendall. She is a great (and knowledgable!) addition to our team and will be assitant coaching throughout the rest of the season.
- We have the opportunity to sell cotton candy at the Grand Ledge St. Pat’s parade. I really think that we could make a killing at this event since not only will there be alot of people, but TONS of little kids. I was also thinking of selling cotton candy in the week before St Pats during lunch again. What I need to know is whether people are up for this?
-TEAM MEETING THIS WEDS after school. It will be even shorter than the last one, but I want to talk about Mackinaw and the whats coming down the road at us.
– If you have photos from any of the tournaments that you would like to see up on the website, send them to me and I will try to get them up as soon as I can.
Alright thats it for now. Email me if you need anything,

Ok boys and girls,
Some major stuff here that I really need you to pay attention to. No one came into practice on Monday and since there was no school today (Weds) due to snow and no school Friday or Monday, that means All of you have gone or are going to go a long time without practice, this is not good.
First, those of you who signed up to sell cotton candy on Weds will need to sell it on Thurs if at all possible. We need this money. I will be getting in touch with the various booster associations in hopes that we can somehow get into selling at the games or selling it to the boosters to sell at the games.
Second, the next tournament is coming up MUCH faster than you think. I really would like to have all of you signed up by tomorrow so that I can get the paperwork in ASAP. Some of you really need to get in gear about what you are doing for the season. After next Saturday, you only have two tournaments left in which to compete and you must compete in both to be eligible to go to Districts.
Third, Dan I have the copies of Stone Soup for you and I need to get these to you asap. Were you planning on competing on the 24th?
Fourth, if I hold an outside practice this Monday somewhere, would any one be able to make it? It would probably be at my parents house in GL, unless you guys can think of someplace else (even someone else’s house). I don’t want to make you drive all the way out to EL to meet with me. Email me if you think you be able to meet for a couple hours on Mon afternoon.
Fifth, The Fridays before tournaments I would like everyone to wear their shirts/sweatshirts to school; just like the sports teams.
Sixth, Although I have links to script pages on our page here, you should check out the other team pages for helpful links too. Also, if you know of another team page, let me know. These are just the ones I could find.
Seventh, The updated phone tree can be found on this page too. Please make the appropriate changes to your hard copy.
Eighth, The ‘instructions’ for how to get a user name for this page are in the post below this. Email me if you have any problems. PLEASE, tell/show your parents about this page. Especially since it has an ‘about’ page that may explain a little bit more what we do.
Alright this is a start. Contact me this weekend if you have any questions, comments, concerns, ideas, etc.
TTFN

Finally a new page that might suite our needs a little bit better than Xanga! (although I will miss the smileys). So, what should you do? First just kinda look around. Get a feel for where things are. The site is still under construction so there are things missing (like the wiki) but it is coming I promise, I figure to have half of this is better than nothing at all. The school servers do NOT block this so you should be able check this at school if you need to. You will not be able to post actual blog entries (like this one) but you will be able to comment upon them if you create an account with edublogs. This is really simple:
Go to edublogs.org and click on the area that says K-12 student. You will then need to create a username for yourself (I would prefer something we could identify you easily by). It also asks you for an email address. You are welcome to put in my MSU one (chamb202@msu.edu) or use your own. The site does not distribute information. And then check “just a user name please”. If you use my email address the “activation notification” will go back to my email and I will have to activate it; so give me about a day to do this, as I am not at my computer 24/7. Although it says students, I see no reason why parents can not do this as well. The system will not be able to distinguish the difference.
If you have links, pictures, etc that you would like to see added please send them to me and I will get them up as soon as I can.
With the beginning of this site, I will NOT be using the Xanga anymore. Please mark this page and pass it on to your parents, guardians, friends, enemies, family pets, whatever.
