 Message from Coach Dawn
General

Dear Parents,

What a trip! Spring break was gorgeous,cold, hysterical, calming, tiring and so much more. Thanks for giving your boys the opportunity to make the trip.

Special thanks to the chaperons, who did the hard work during the week. Jorge, Rebecca, Carmen, Mario, Natalia and Ramon kept us well fed and on schedule.

Thanks to the Gonzalez family for opening up their home to the team on Wednesday evening. We had a wonderful time. 

Thanks to Jeff Montes for taking a week out of his life to coach, again.

I am sure you will all continue to hear the stories for years to come.

I am so blessed to be the coach of this team!

Thanks,

Dawn
