Wednesday, April 1st Activity

Parents:

This Wednesday, April 1st, we're going to have our final Team Takedown activity of the season. We've asked the Gunnison Gazette to come to the gym and get a picture of the wrestlers and do a short write up about the season, and then we'll have some pizza and play some games.

Please have your wrestler to the gym by 5:30 pm, dressed in their singlets. They need to bring all their wrestling medals and trophies that they've collected over the years for the team photo.

Coaches need to wear their coach shirts.

We are hoping to do a small highlight on each wrestler, so we need parents to help out with this. Please come up with a small, (around 40 words or so) paragraph about your wrestler for the paper and email it to Shanelle Winn (swinn1@farmersagent.com) by Wednesday at noon. Here's an example of what you can say in the paragraph:

"John Doe has been wrestling with Team Takedown for 4 years, and has claimed 2 state titles. He enjoys wrestling, baseball, hiking, and hanging out with his friends. John is the son of John Sr. and Jane Doe of Gunnison."

You do not have to use that format, it's just an idea for those who may need help with what to write :)

Your wrestler will be ready to be picked up by 7:30 pm. We are asking that parents just drop off their wrestler and then pick them up after, and don't plan on staying. Our gym isn't big enough to hold all the wrestlers, coaches, parents, and siblings; and we don't need any extra distractions while trying to get them to cooperate for pictures!  We will post pictures on the website, so you'll be able to copy and print them if you would like a team photo, or we can email you copies.
