Hi FHS Women's Soccer Families-

It is time again to gear up to run the Snack Shack concession stand at home soccer games. Unlike past years nobody volunteered ahead of time to run the Snack Shack, so its operation is being organized on the fly. I am writing to ask you two things:

1. Are you interested in helping run the Snack Shack? This will probably be done by a committee of fun people, each taking on a responsibility, such as stocking the food, picking up and dropping off the cash box, etc. Please let me know if this interests you.

2. Every family needs to work in the Snack Shack for at least one girls' game. You can either work during your daughter's game (view is pretty good) or during the JV/Varsity game that your daughter is not playing in.

Please look at the schedule below and let me know when you would like to work. I will also have at sign up sheet at the Falmouth game on Friday.

Don't hesitate to reply with any questions.

Many thanks.

Katrina Van Dusen

Hope everyone is enjoying the Labor Day holiday.

Reminders;

No practice Labor Day afternoon.

Uniform care.
The uniforms are for game use not for casual wear or practices.
Uniforms should be air dried. This is especially true for the Admiral as the press on numbers will peel in the dryer.
Please follow the washing instructions. 
Uniforms are typically on a 4 year life cycle so it helps everyone out if you treat them like it is your best top and shorts.

Preseason scrimmage for JV and Varsity on Tuesday at Deering High School's Memorial Field.
Player and team list below. If you did not get a uniform Friday we will have one for you on Tuesday.
Bus Depart 1:45
3:00 JV
5:00 Varsity

Wednesday is One Donation day. First collection we took in 45 items. That is fabulous.

Wednesday and Thursday practices 3 - 5:30.

Season opener at home vs. Greely. Greely last year was a Class A Western Maine finalist and projected to be in the hunt for a finals spot this year.
Varsity 3:30 with JV to follow.

For Deering Scrimmage. If there is an I after your name that means when last we met you were injured. You may or may not be ready to return to play but I have to assume you will not. If you are come dressed in the uniform for the team you are listed with. Some JV players will be asked to swing up to the Varsity game. If you are listed with the JV team and had borrowed a varsity uniform to be with the preseason travel group please return. (cleaned ; > )

What Do You Think?

	1994 Mexico Keeper is, well, maybe not a Keeper!

Seems like there are a number of articles out there trying to figure out what is the ugliest football kit (soccer uniforms). There seem to be some good candidates, but, you know, I like a couple of them. Check it out --

MPA Hands-Off Period
From the Sports Season Policy

In order to provide a window of personal time similar to the time available prior to the winter and spring sports seasons, summer recess is defined as the time period between the last day of the spring sport season to August 1 or fourteen (14) days prior to the beginning of the fall sport season, whichever occurs later. This does not exclude individual students from attending camps during this two-week period of personal time as long as all other Sport Season Policy requirements are met. Individuals choosing to attend camps during this two-week period may use school protective gear or track and field implements.
