Fishing Trip Info…

November 1st, 2011

A delicious dinner...

All players and parents are welcome to attend our fishing trip to Lake Taneycomo Nov. 20.

We will meet in the Grant Street parking lot at 11 AM and leave by 11:15 AM. Participants are encouraged to carpool; there will not be a bus. We should be on the water from 12:30-3:30 PM and return home by 4:30 PM or so.

I am pleased to announce that Lilley’s Landing Resort in Branson has very generously offered us use of their dock and three or four pontoon boats for our outing! We are asked only to cover the cost of fuel for the boats. They operate a full-service fly and tackle shop, so you will be able to purchase your license and tackle there when we arrive.

Here is a checklist of reminders to do before the trip:

  • Obtain a valid Missouri state fishing license.
  • Purchase appropriate bait and tackle. Night crawlers and Power Bait are good choices for bait fishermen. Small treble hooks with springs around the shanks are good for Power Bait.
  • Bring money and food.
  • Dress appropriately. It likely will be chilly.

Tight lines,

Nurnberg

2011 Kids Camp Weather Plan: Update

August 8th, 2011

The Parkview Kids’ Soccer Camp got underway Monday evening at the Parkview Soccer Field and JFK Stadium.

To make up the lost hour Monday evening due to a lightning delay, the camp will add a half hour each night Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, ending now at 8:30 PM.

Unfortunately, the weather this week may cause the camp to experience additional delays or cancellations. If we make the decision to cancel an entire evening’s session, we will post that notice on this site by 5:20 PM. You may also call me at 860-0759 for a message regarding the camp’s status.

If we cancel an entire evening, Thursday will be used as a make-up night.

Parkview wins @ Carthage; Bus loses on the road

March 29th, 2011

The Parkview varsity girls’ soccer team won, 5-0, at Carthage Friday, getting two goals each from senior Kelsey Loderhose and freshman Emma Chilton. Parkview also earned an own goal in the first half after a dangerous cross played in by Chilton.

The JV team missed numerous chances and had to settle for a 0-0 draw.

The toughest challenge to face the team that day, however, may have been the ride home. Electing to start back home and eat dinner in Mount Vernon, the bus plodded along in usual fashion for almost 15 minutes. Out of nowhere at around 8:40 PM, a cloud of smoke and fumes seeped into the cabin, and the driver noted a sudden peak in engine temperature.

A radiator hose had ruptured, causing a loss of practically all of the bus’s coolant, and the driver had no choice but to pull off on the side of Interstate 44 (roughly at mile marker 82.8). The district bus barn immediately dispatched a driver to retreive and deliver a replacement bus, but that still meant the people on the broken bus would sit there until 11:35 PM, when the replacement finally arrived on the back of a tow truck.

Thank God for cell phones and well-behaved girls on the bus. What could have been torture turned into a fun, if forced, team bonding night.

The girls got home at 12:35 AM.

Mandatory Parent Meeting Thursday

February 28th, 2011

Parents, remember that the booster club and I will conduct a mandatory parent meeting 6 PM this Thursday in the school cafeteria.

I have a presentation regarding eligibility requirements and team policies to address, and the booster club will give everyone their options for helping out the program during the season.

Remember that all players must contribute $30 toward the booster club, either through selling enough items in the winter fundraiser or through direct donation to the club. Approximately four girls met the requirements through the fundraiser. THIS CHECK IS MADE OUT TO THE “PHS GIRLS SOCCER BOOSTER CLUB.”

Also, a few players who reserved “PHS” socks still need to pay. Please send the appropriate amount of money ($9 per pair of socks plus $1 for shipping). THIS CHECK IS MADE OUT to “PARKVIEW HIGH SCHOOL.”

Winter Fundraiser

January 5th, 2011

Dear Parkview Soccer followers,

The dreary job of fundraising is upon us, but I think I’ve found a reasonable product for us to sell that we and others may actually get our money’s worth from using.

We are selling Parkview fan items and apparel through a catalogue company out of Texas (fancloth.com). Take a look at the Parkview catalogue by clicking here or on the embedded photo in this post.

I gave the catalogue to a few girls before the winter break.  While only three girls have returned order forms so far, many of the folks who have already purchased items were especially drawn to the blanket, and the shirts and hoodies have been well received as well.

Have checks made out to “Parkview High School” with either “Boys Soccer Fundraiser” or “Girls Soccer Fundraiser” in the memo. That way boys and girls players can make sales. I’ll keep track of the money that goes toward each separate program. Here is a PDF version of the order form.

Click on the image above to open the PDF file for the order form.

So, please consider purchasing an item or two, and email this post to all of your Parkview-connected friends and family. I’d like to submit our order to the company by January 18 or so, so that gives everyone two weeks or so to collect and deliver payments to me. Yes, please collect the money up front.
