P.S. When you see me Monday morning, say “Hey Mr. Price, I read your welcome back post” . The first 10 students will receive a special prize!!!
Mr. Price
Baseball players need to wear baseball pants this morning if you have a pair. Weather looks like it is going to cooperate this morning.
Due to incoming rain girls softball practice will be canceled this morning. Boys baseball will practice in the FEMA gym. If rains persist tomorrow, then softball will be in the gym and baseball will be canceled.
Howell Valley Open House will be coming up soon, and with the increase in Covid-19 cases in our area, we will continue to be diligent in implementing measures to help reduce exposure for our community.
One way is to schedule appointments. We understand you may have several students in different grades, and Open House scheduling could be a challenge. Our goal is to try and streamline the process by asking you to schedule all your children’s visits through the Howell Valley office. By scheduling through the office, Mary Ann will work to get your appointments as close together as possible.
Open House is scheduled for August 17th and 19th from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Please contact the office (256-2268), to schedule your appointment(s).
We will have baseball and softball practices Wednesday 8/18, and Thursday 8/19 from 7:30-9:00 AM for those interested in playing these sports this year. Bring a glove, hat, and water bottle.
In case you’re wondering, your kids are safe and dry at Sports Camp.
HV Sports Camp: Come unplugged. Please do not send cell phones or electronics with your child. Call one of these numbers if you need to contact your child: 293-7377, Coach Dixon; 274-4690, Mrs. Dixon. Remember water bottles. We will be drinking water with our meals.
It's almost time to start our 2nd day of HV Sports Camp. We will be camping tonight, so if you signed up to bring a tent please remember to bring it. Don't worry if you don't have a tent, we have tent assignments for you. Bring a change of clothes for tomorrow's activities, and some deodorant would be nice. Showers are available if kids would like to use them before bedtime. Also, if you did not pay your registration fee yesterday, please send that today so we have enough money to order pizza.
Reminder: Today's Sports Camp is just a day camp. Please do not bring camping equipment today. Bring gym shoes, ball gloves (if you have one), a refillable water bottle and $15 registration fee.
Tomorrow is HV Sports Camp! I hope the kids are as excited to get back into the swing of athletics as I am. Here is a list of items to bring for camp:
Thursday: Gym shoes, outdoor shoes or cleats, glove/softball or baseball equipment $15 registration fee. Friday: Same as Thursday plus running shoes, a tent and personal hygiene items to spend the night. All campers must bring a refillable water bottle as hydration will be necessary throughout the camp. Also, we will be providing kids with Pizza for supper on Friday night and a pancake breakfast Saturday morning, but kids are welcome to bring snacks. However, please do not send Soda. Kids will need to be drinking water in order to feel good during our activities. Sports drinks are acceptable, but only as a supplement to water.
This is a good time for our athletes to get re-acquainted with each other and bond as a group before their school year. Parents please understand that this is better done without an audience of parents on Thursday and Friday. However, on Saturday I would like to encourage parents to come support their kids in our final competitions. Starting around 7:30 we will have some unique Track events that the kids will be competing in outdoors. After this, around 10:00 we will move into the gym and complete our activities with some basketball games. Following this there will be a brief awards ceremony.
