Hi all – hope weekend was good and exams went well. Onto semester 2 tomorrow and a fresh start for all (everybody has 100% right now). A reminder to get off to a good start, not fall behind, and establish good habits of attendance, assignments, and study habits for each class!!!

For lacrosse class we are back at the turf every Tues and Thur until high school BC’s starting tomorrow (Jan 30) – other dates are filled depending on facilities and weather with strength, fitness, PE, and other activities. As well, 3 sessions with a sports psychology specialist have been booked and am looking forward to that for all.

This week Tues (lacrosse), Wed (PE), Thur (lacrosse), and Fri (strength training).

Upcoming dates to keep in mind;
Feb 23-26 – sr travel team to Best of West tournament in Vegas
Mar 7-9 – projected dates for high school BC’s (waiting on confirmation)

And…for Denver most of the planning is done and next steps are securing flights and naming teams. This will be done asap and we will be taking two teams again likely with a mix of gr 10-12 as the makeup

Looking forward to an excellent semester 2 for all – Coach Reisig

Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays!

Please see below about the current Toys 4 Teens campaign going on at Claremont for the holidays. Have talked to sr team about partnering up for $5 each to get a card and contribute close to 25 cards as a team. Any contributions from any player would be appreciated.

As well, thanks to all who bought tickets/donated at Friday Night Lights, the lacrosse program is proud to have raised $1,000 for KidSport.

Thanks,

Hello parents,

Our annual Toys 4 Teens Donation Drive is on from Nov 27-Dec 12. Claremont donates $10 Gift Cards to Teens in need in our community. We join in on The Zone 91.3’s Toy Drive which gives to the “Christmas Giving Network,” a group of local agencies in Greater Victoria such as CFAX Santa’s Anonymous, St Vincent de Paul, The Mustard Seed, Salvation Army, Times Colonist Christmas Fund and many more.

Please help donate towards our school goal of 1000 gift cards and help a Teen in our community. Gift cards for food, clothing, personal items, school supplies, etc. are welcomed. Our hope is that every student and staff member donate 1 gift card each. These will be collected in Block 2 classes or at the front office.

Thank you for your support. Happy Holidays!
