OLL Fencing - Week of December 15, 2015

For this week our practice schedule will be Monday, Tuesday and Thursday due to our school team photos being taken on Thursday at 3:00 the team decided rather then have practice on Friday we would do everything on Thursday.  I am hoping to receive the forms today to hand our to the team at practice if I do not receive them from the Athletic Department in time I will send them through an email.  For team photos all the children must be in their full white uniform with the team socks, for our new members I will bring you socks that day to where.
Also, I am sending home a letter with the children today regarding our annual family Christmas party which will be held next Tuesday December 22, 2015 at 4:30 in the school cafeteria.  This is always a fun time for the kids to have some fun and socialize, families are welcome to join us and we ask that everyone bring a dish to share.  Mrs. Dana Bortz will be heading the preparation and her email and phone number are on the paper however if your teenager does not share this with you her email is danabortz@frontiernet.net . (Please see attached)
For next week, we will not be having practice on Monday December 21,2015 due to the dodgeball tournament at the school that day.
Also, December 26th we would like to hold a one day clinic at Peekskill Fencing for the team more details will follow on this, keep in mind our first Super Saturday tournament is January 9, 2015 everyone should have the schedule of all our super Saturday's if you do not please let me know.
Thank you,
Shannon Gauzza and Alex Acevedo
