This Field House is "CLEAN!"

All I can say to the group of parents that came out today for work day is, "wow." I'm not going to make the mistake of naming individuals to thank, as I'm afraid I'd leave someone out, but thank you to James Pullen for firming up the date and making things run smoothly! I would invite each of you to tour the pavilion and field house while it's still in the shape we left it.

You really couldn't smell sweat in the building by the end of the day - AND - we have awesome additional seating for the boys under the pavilion. The door to the laundry room is re-installed, the fan under the pavilion is fixed, most of the spiders in the weight room are gone, and all signs of bathroom usage (or abuse) have been erased!

Privacy and hygene elements were even added to the varsity bathrooms - we know it won't last, but it made us moms feel good. All major traffic areas are sterile if only for Monday. The grass has been trimmed, trash picked up and the cool grill moved in front of the pavilion for easier tailgating events (if needed). All I have to say to Sandy Bettiga is - you are the WOMAN! If you only knew what she encountered in one of the bathrooms! :-)

Anyway, here's just to say thanks. It was hard work, but fun. I know many of you would have helped if you could, so I thank you too. We need to do an exercise like this on a regular basis. Coach and his staff cannot do it all - he does laundry all weekend!

I have another message to get out to everyone (several, in fact), but my right hand is too weak to continue - I'm a whimp.

Really, all of you there today, thanks. And again, wow. Dani
