West Jefferson Volleyball Girls! If you haven't already, let Coach Lori Eddins know if you're coming to camp! She needs each athlete's adult T-shirt size and what grade they are entering in the fall. (The junior high camp will only be for 7th & 8th graders this year.)

Camp release forms need to be turned in when athletes arrive at camp on the first day.

Print the release form here: https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/.../Volleyball_Camp...

There will be copies available for a parent/guardian to fill out at the check-in table on the first day of camp.

Camp fees need to be paid by cash or check! NO VENMO!!!

Everyone needs to bring their own water and the high school girls need to bring a healthy lunch!

Athletes will need to enter the building through the girls' locker room as the Panther Den hallway floors are being cleaned & waxed.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE!!

While the new track is being installed and the track material is setting up in the evenings, we need EVERYONE to stay off the track and football field. No one should have any reason to enter the fenced area. The anticipated day of completion is Monday, August 4th, depending on the weather.

Also, we have had community members using our facilities to walk their dogs. We have already had to clean dog poop off our brand-new football turf. This is unacceptable! Responsible pet owners would not allow their animals to defecate on school property where our kids are going to be playing. If anyone sees this happen, please report it to the district office immediately!

Thank you!
