Hello Spartan Fans......
Our rebound from Thanksgiving vacation is rolling along with the beginning of Ballroom Dancing for our 8th graders. Under the direction of Mrs. Anne Garvey, our students are getting into the fundamentals, with nine more days till our "formal" on Friday; December 18th. 99.5% of this years' graduating class are working very hard to learn this "lifeskill" activity, and as is always the case, that .5% will catch on ......hopefully sooner than later!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At this date, Boys Varsity Basketball has completed one day of tryouts with a conclusion coming tomorrrow (Dec. 2nd). The final roster for the 2009-10 season will be posted on Thursday morning (Dec. 3rd). Practices will be scheduled during the remaining two weeks in December, with game action scheduled to start in January. Please check this site for a roster and a game schedule. On behalf of my club, I would like to once again invite the members of 66 to attend games whenever possible!! 2008-09 was quite a "fun ride", one that will never be forgotten. On that same vein, I will post a list next week of our '08-'09 squad, and where they are playing in high school this season!!
GOOD LUCK to all our Lakeview girls who will be trying out for the Varsity Cheerleading squad under the direction of Mrs. Jennifer Maass. The excitement and enthusiasm of last years squad was one of main reasons for our teams' success in their tournament run!!!
On a serious note, it is my understanding that the Chicago Bears' practice was stopped on Tuesday when a player spotted a "white, powdery substance" on the field. D.E.A. and A.T.F. were called in to investigate the finding. After complete analysis, forensic experts determined that the white substance, unknown to players was the GOAL LINE!! Practice was allowed to continue after agents determined that players would not encounter the substance again this season!!! (Thanks to Coach Slayden for this F.Y.I.)
Have a great week, and
GO SPARTANS........PLAY HARD!!!!!!
Coach Dodd
