Posted by Robert Griffin, Jr on Mar 17 2006 at 04:00PM PST
Hello Five Hills Track & Field Club Family, we are very pleased to inform you of our bake sale efforts on Friday, March 17, 2006 in front of Copperas Cove's Hollywood and Block Buster Video Stores which yielded $974.00. In January, Coach Griffin outlined many areas of emphasis to make this years' track campaign flow even more efficiently. His vision of greatly assisting families with cost of participation was set high. Youth sports in America is becoming very expensive. Coach Griffin and the board members all agree that our fundraising efforts must be aggressive, timely, and efficient. Coach Griffin continues to tell the board members that, "Fundraising is about Time, Location, and Effort." We felt our scheduling was timely; a Friday and a payday weekend. We felt our location was paramount; the need of Americans desires to escape reality through movies. And most definitely, we felt our effort was determine and well thoughtout; Coach Griffin, Coach Terry, the parents, and all our athletes waving at every vehicle traveling east and west on Copperas Cove's Highway 190 was inspiring. Our veteran and new members joined together to make this a joyous fundrasiasing occasion. Carmen Johson, Tracy Babbs, Tami McCarter, Clyde Turner were the movers and Shakers at the Hollywood Video Store location. Jonah Shedrick, Silvia Sloan, Jackie Spell, Carlene McArthur were the movers and shakers at the Blolckbuster location. We thank all the wonderful mothers and fathers for their dutifulness over the oven, HEB, and Wal-Mart bakeries for the wonderful food items presented for donations. We thank all Central Texas residents traveling through Hwy 190 on March 17, 2006 for all your waves, smiles, and donations. We also would like to thank the moviewatchers, members of Blockbuster and Hollywood Video for your cheerful kindness in supporting the Five Hills Track & Field Club Family. Our bake sales efforts were boosted up with a $26.00 gift to an awesome $1,000.00 by our Awards Chairperson's (Silvia Sloan) mother from Radcliff, Kentucky. Mrs. Trudy Cruz spent many hours baking her German specialties of fudge, magic cookie bars, and apple struesel (cakes).
