JV State Update

Looks like the games start at 8:30 am rather than 9 a.m. so get to Lindbergh at 6:45 a.m. and carpools will leave at 7 am sharp!!

Also - we need players to indicate their ride status when they register on the sign-up page so we can coordinate the true number of rides - need a ride; have a ride with xxxx; driving on my own. 

Volunteer/Job opportunity this weekend

 We received this email regarding a job opportunity at the tournament this weekend; contact information is below if anyone is interested. Our varsity team is playing their first game of the day on this field, so kind of exciting to know there will be a video of the whole thing! 

Hello all,

This weekend is the State High School Tournament up in Blaine, MN at the National Sports Center.  We have a feature field, U2, which is a grass bowl.  We have feature matches scheduled all weekend on the field, including both finals on Sunday.  The full schedules for games this weekend are here: Open and Girl's.

We would like to video tape the games featured on U2.  We are looking for a camera operator for each game.  There are no formal experience requirements.  We are willing to pay $20/game.  There are 9 games on the weekend, so you could earn up to $180.  Each game has hard caps, so you would have 15+ minutes of downtime between rounds.  We will provide all video equipment.

Saturday: 8:30, 10:30, 12:30, 2:30, 4:30
Sunday: 9:00, 11:00, 1:30, 3:30

If you are interested and available for any of the rounds, please contact Chris Miller today.  chrismikemiller@gmail.com.

Regards,
Dave

Sign ups

We have links on the side bar now for the upcoming BANQUET, for the JV STATE TOURNAMENT TEAMS, and for the CUB WEENIE WAGON. We still need help tomorrow, Thursday, May 23rd, for the first shift at Cub if anyone is available! We are only working the Cub wagon for another month, so please help out if you're available!

Please sign up for the banquet and state tournament as soon as you know you're able to attend so we are able to have accurate numbers for planning purposes.

Centrals-Varsity and Girls

The bus will be departing for Centrals at 9:00 am, Friday morning, from the back of the Adath parking lot. Please be at Adath at 8:40am to check in, and to ensure that we take off on time. We will be making a stop for lunch and dinner, so we anticipate the trip to take 11 1/2 to 12 hours.

We've been told that the final game and ceremony should be complete by 4:30 on Sunday. We'll plan on leaving as quickly as we can following these events, and make a fast dinner stop on our way out of town. If everything goes as planned, I'm guessing we'll get back into Mpls around 3:30 or 4:00 am.

Breakfast will be served at the hotel each morning. We will have our snack bags with us at the fields, although if you have special snacks you prefer, make sure you bring them with. There will be an event Saturday evening that all teams will attend, and dinner will be served, although I've found in past years that players often are hungry again later in the evening, and will order pizza or Chinese at the hotel. Players are responsible for their own meals whenever we stop while on the bus. Players may also want to bring money for gear at the tournament. There will be an opportunity to swap jerseys with other teams during Saturday evening's event, so be sure to bring some things if you're interested.

If you haven't already filled out an updated USAU medical form, please do so IMMEDIATELY, and email it to me at semekler@gmail.com, or bring it with you tomorrow. YOU CAN'T PLAY WITHOUT THIS!

CUB FOODS VOLUNTEER SHIFTS

We are still in need of a couple volunteers for this Thursday at Cub-the 10-2 shift. I've added a link to the calendar on the right, so it's very easy to sign up!

Due to a number of factors, we've made the decision to only work the weenie wagon until the end of June, so the dates that are posted now are the only ones we need to fill...please try to help us do this.
There is a possibility of working a weekend shift in the fall, but that has yet to be determined.

We will be moving in some new directions with a variety of different fundraisers in the fall.

THERE ARE ALSO SOME SPOTS LEFT TO BE FILLED ON THE HUSTLE SIGN UP GENIUS!!!

Varsity Game @EP details 5/2

The Varsity game @EP is on for tonight.

Precipitation is expected, but not until 5pm - so we think the fields will be in pretty good condition and we're going to give it a try.   

Toasty Warm.  Your kit should include many layers, extra socks and a rain coat/water proof jacket you can wear on the sideline.  Make sure you bring a trash bag to put your belongings in.  Toasty warm is as much about mental preparedness as it is about bringing the right gear.

Park on the South side of EP High school:
17185 Valley View Road,
Eden Prairie, MN 55346
http://goo.gl/maps/UgDOQ

The field is on the West side of Round Lake Park, give yourself 10 minutes to walk the paths to the field: http://goo.gl/maps/8COvV

Spectators - at this field, huddling in your car is not an option.  Please be prepared for the weather.  This is probably a good time to break out your Hurt blanket.  Hope you didn't put your winter hat/mitten into storage yet!
