TITAN LACROSSE SCHEDULE

I created this schedule for the Olympia Lacrosse team. I saved it as my computer's wallpaper. That way I look at the schedule every day and it reminds that I need to get out of the office in time for the game. We printed about 50 copies and gave them to the players this week. When the players saw them, I overheard them say it was 'sic'--I guess that means good?! I also sent an electronic copy to the booster's club.

Also, I photographed last nights game and captured some really great action photos of the team. Check back this weekend for the slide show.

Later,
Joe

Proud Dad

It seems like life moves so fast these days. We run from one activity to the next without taking the time to slow down and appreciate the people who mean the most to us. In my case its my family (Toni, Megan, Ryan, and Shelby). I love them all dearly and in case they read this I also love them all EQUALLY. :-)

However, I just need to take a moment say how proud I am of my son Ryan. He is a freshman at Olympia H.S. this year. He has never really been into sports. Yes he played a few years of YMCA soccer but it was never his passion. So, when he came home a couple months ago an announced that he was going to try out for the High School Lacrosse team my first thought was "we have to purchase a lot of expensive equipment that he is never going to use." I'm not really into selling things on eBay so I figured it would sit in our garage with all the sports equipment I don't use any more.

Fast forward two months. Ryan worked out with the team during the preseason and played in the winter league. When he broke his thumb the first day of regular season practice I thought it was all over and that I should probably make some room in the garage for his equipment. But no, we purchased a better pair of gloves (more expensive) and Ryan kept practicing/learning the game.

I'm proud to say Ryan started as the JV goalie last night in his first High School Lacrosse game. Ryan - Keep it up!

Love,
Dad
