This week's weekly update: April 30th-May 4th: GLAX League Playoff Week Update
Thanks to Sheila Monkarsh for coordinating Senior Night on Friday, it was a fantastic event and great to see the Seniors end their regular season on a high note against Alhambra. We would also like to thank Coach Kalli, Coach Peyton and all the JV girls who came out to support the Seniors and Varsity. We hope to see all the JV players and parents for the League and NCS Playoff games. Here’s the schedule and potential schedule for this week:
- Monday – Varsity practice 5:30-7
- Tuesday – League Tournament Semi-Final Game – ACALANES @CAMPO – 7:00. We need 3 volunteers to work, 2 on the scorer’s desk and 1 Timekeeper. Please sign up on the website, which has been updated (Thanks Dave). Again, hope to see all JV players, parents and friends out in force for this game. The last matchup between these two teams was a one-goal, come-from-behind victory by Campo, so you know Aca will be coming to Campo with vengeance on their minds. The girls would love to hear a big Campo crowd in the stands. Pizza is always a possibility…
- Wednesday – Varsity Practice 5:30-7
- Thursday – Varsity Practice 5:30-7
- Friday – If Campo wins Tuesday, the girls will likely play League Tournament Final @ Miramonte at 7pm. We would need 2 volunteers for scorekeeping and carpool drivers, and will send another email Wednesday as a reminder in the event that is the case. If Campo does not win Tuesday, Friday will be a regular practice day, but again, we may update you Wednesday if plans change.
NCS – Seeding will be done by Sunday afternoon and we will update you once we know where and when the girls will playReminder - End of Season Banquet– The Banquet will be held Tues, May 29th at MVPC at 6:00pm. Please save the date, more details to follow.
Mid-Week Update: April 25, 2018
Mid-week update:GLAX April 25rd-27th: JV Update - Want to clarify what happened with today’s scheduled game at O’Dowd. O’Dowd begged us to schedule another JV game back in late February/March so we added that game at O’Dowd while Varsity played Marin Academy, which does not have a JV team. Late Monday O’Dowd reached out and said they had a field space conflict so cancelled the game. We emailed their coach and AD twice trying to reschedule the game on Thursday or Friday at Campo, but they have not responded to our emails(including contact from our own AD). Unfortunately, because Alhambra does not have a JV team all this means that the JV girls have played their last game. That said, Kalli and Peyton will be having their regular practice tomorrow, followed by the pasta feed at the Parsons. The coaches have also asked the entire JV team to attend Friday’s Senior Night game against Alhambra at Campo. Senior Night festivities will kick off around 6:30pm, please come by to share in this special event…pizza will be provided for the JV players. Varsity Practice Thursday 5:30-6:30 (PLEASE NOTE THE REVISED TIME), followed by Pasta Feed at Monkarsh’s. With practice ending at 6:30, please get pasta to the Monkarsh’s by 6. Friday Varsity Game – Alhambra @Campo 7pm – Senior Night. Senior Player introductions will start around 6:30(Parents of seniors, please try to be on the field by 6:15). Parent Social after the game at the Monkarsh’s. Please bring an appetizer to share and/or something to drink (bottle of wine, beer, etc.) End of Season Banquet Update – The Banquet will be held Tues, May 29th at MVPC at 6:00pm. Please save the date, more details to follow.

We also need parents to volunteer to host pasta feeds and bring food for those teambuilding events.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR GAMES AND CARPOOL:
Please be sure to sign up to work at games and drive carpool prior to game day, otherwise we are scrambling on game day to ensure we have enough workers/drivers. Thank you to those who have already worked at the desk and in the booth, and thanks to all of you who have driven car pool so far!
TEAM CONTRIBUTIONS
Thanks to all of you who have already made your $570 contribution to the program, without it we simply could not have girls lax at Campo. Your contribution goes to pay for uniforms, pennies, referees, coaches, and equipment -- all the essentials of the program. For example, the program spent $10,000 this season on uniforms this season alone (first new uniforms in 5 years). We try to keep the cost down by using carpools (saves $600 a game on transportation costs) and volunteers where we can, but we are really hoping for 100% participation to keep the program afloat (right now we are at 79%), so if you have not already made your contribution, please go to this link $570 Team Contribution and make your contribution today!
UPCOMING EVENTS
Next week is RIVALRY WEEK! Campo is @Miramonte Friday 3/23, so we will have our first PASTA FEED on 3/22 and we are still looking for a volunteer to host the JV pasta feed, please sign up on the volunteer link (above) if you are willing to host!
