Parents,

With the off-season conditioning program up and running we have officially kicked off summer.  I wanted to get a few reminders out for things that are coming up in the next few days.  If you have any info on any of this please let me know.

  • Our Biggest team fundraiser of the season kicks off on Monday when our Pondo Cards are handed out on Monday the 7th between 8-9 am.  If you have any questions on this program please let me know
  • If you are interested in helping out the program please join us at our Booster Club meeting this Sunday at 1 pm at the Parker Pour House.  We will have info on anything and everything that is needed to help this program run smoothly and you can choose what you think would fit best.
  • I was asked to pass along the following info in regards to any activities inside the building at Ponderosa
