Open Discussion
Locker decorations discussed. Parents for varsity and JV will need to appoint a leader to coordinate activities. Caution shared about oversupplying snacks during the first couple of games leaving very little for the rest of the season. Encouraged assigning a few parents for each week to spread out the expense and even out the content of the snack bags. Varsity parents provide coaches and trainer snacks. JV can do the same if supplies allow for it.
Volunteer sign up lists for events throughout this season made available to those present.
Coach’s report- Parent meeting with a huge success. Emphasis placed on parents and players using Sports You for communication. There will be a single group this year for Burk sports instead of multiple groups for each team. Freshman camp started today with small numbers. Freshman who attended were encouraged to reach out to their buddies and remind them of the need to attend camp.
Next booster club meeting- August 1 at 7pm at the field house
