The first borad meeting of the 2012 season is this Sunday at 6:00 p.m. at 7931 se King Rd #2. If you come bring your own chair. We will be discussing the "free football" proposal at this time. I do expect alot of debate about the price of a ticket. If you want input on this, this is the time to show up. Something else we will be discussing is an incentive to have the tickets sold by July 1st if you have an idea please let me know, as it is very important we get a large portion sold by then.
Also I have had a few people ask about when the tickets will be available to sell. Once be board approves all aspects of this plan then it will take 3 to 4 weeks to get the tickets printed and ready to go.

To all
I would like to take this moment to thank all the Board Members, players, cheerleaders, parents, and everyone else who sold raffle tickets over the past nine months to make this raffle a huge success. We brought in over $36,000 with a profit of over $33,000. With this and other money we spent $24,000 on new helmets, and through 2 weeks we have had no player sit for concussions (knock on wood), $7,000 on new cheer uniforms, $4,000 on new football jerseys, finally quality first aid kits, a ice machine for the snack shack. And filled in alot of equipment we have been needing. I think your coaches will agree we have the best practice equipment we have ever had, although not perfect and we will get it better.
This past Saturday we had the drawing for the trip to Hawaii which, Austin Livley who sold 57 tickets asisted by Bryan Amaya who sold 36 tickets, drew ticket number 1017 belonging to Jocque Grieve, so congratulation to Ms. Grieve.
I look forward to making this raffle bigger and better next year. We will be discussing the raffle at our January board meeting, if you have an idea or thought that is the time to provide input either in person or via e-mail. There is no doubt we still have alot of equipment to purchase begining with new shoulder pads, new high end cheer uniforms, and a building to put up at Alder Creek to put gear in.
Again THANK YOU ALL
