Remember to cheer on your fellow
Chargers when you can!
As most of you
know, hosting events at our site
is one of our most successful
and enduring fundraising
functions. This is a stable and
consistent source of funds for
our program. Each family with a
child registered for a St Mary’s
sport is required to volunteer
time working in the
concession stand or
collecting admissions. This
consists of 2 or more shifts,
between 2 – 3 hours each. If
you have more than one child in
our program, you will have
additional shifts scheduled.
Please find your name on the
attached schedule and mark your
calendar. Additional time may
be required during Playoffs.

If your scheduled
time is not good for you, please
use the attached list to
find a replacement. It is
your responsibility to ensure
that someone is working in the
concession stand for the time
you are scheduled.
The
Athletic Commission would
like to ask for some additional
assistance in running this
program. This is a huge
responsibility and a MAJOR funds
contributor to our program.
If anyone is interested in
becoming Concessions Director,
can work more time than
scheduled, could make phone
calls each week, or would be
interested in ordering
inventory, please give me a call
and we can work out the
details.
Thanks for your
support, and please don’t
hesitate to call with
questions.

St. Mary’s Football –
Summer Workout Program
________________________________________________________________________
A note from Coach Church . . .
Welcome to all new and returning St. Mary’s
football players. Like any contact sport, football can place great
demands on your body and can really test your physical fitness and
stamina. Above anything else, our goal here at St. Mary’s is for
football to be fun and rewarding for all of our players. Being
physically fit can go along way in helping you the player have fun
with the game and help you achieve your very best.
Let’s face it, that first week of practice can
be a real bear, lot’s of running, running and more running. To help
make that first week a little easier for you, I have asked my
coaches for suggestions and ideas that will help our players come to
that “first day” of practice in the best shape possible. Below is a
very simple, easy to follow VOLUNTARY program that we all feel will
help you get off to a great start this season IF you spend a little
time with it. Good luck and have a great summer. See you in the
fall.
Coach Church
