2013 SAJO Season Survey for Parents

May 13th, 2013 at 2:17 by bwelsch

If you are the parent of a 2013 SAJO player, please take a few minutes to respond to our survey. Your input will help provide valuable info for planning future SAJO seasons. Question 2 asks for your player’s opinion, so you may want to complete the survey when she is around. Thanks so much. The survey will close May 25th.

 

 

Outstanding Volunteers Recognized

May 2nd, 2013 at 10:35 by bwelsch

At the End of the Season Celebration, the SAJO Board recognized 3 of our volunteers as “Outstanding Volunteers” for this season based on nominations from SAJO coaches and Board members. This year’s “Outstanding Volunteers” are: Jennifer Snyder, Kathy Wyss Elliott, and Brian Olson. Each of these volunteers gave multiple hours of their time to SAJO this season, yet the skills and service they provided were quite diverse and are a great demonstration of how you can get involved in so many ways to make a difference for our teams.

Jennifer served as the serving statistician for the 13-1s team. Jenn was committed to that role – was at all the tourneys – watching every match intently so she could provide the coaches w/ valuable information. Thanks, Jenn!

Kathy served as the lead coordinator of our BWW fundraising night. Kathy secured donations from local businesses, ensured the event was well promoted, and helped raise awareness, community support, and financial contributions for the club. Thanks so much, Kathy!! We missed you tonight , although Madison represented you well/

Brian designed, built, and delivered the fabulous new hitting boxes for our players and coaches to use in the practice gyms. These boxes are essential volleyball training equipment and will be used by SAJO and Stillwater Pony VB for years to come. Brian, you too were missed tonight, but Lillyanne Strom proudly accepted your award on your behalf.

Thank you all for your outstanding service to your team and our club this season!

Thanks to all that came out in support of SAJO at Buffalo Wild Wings earlier this week. Kathy Elliott and Stacy Laubscher did a fantastic job planning and hosting this fun event.  Thanks, ladies! In addition to the fundraising support from BWW, we received prize donations from SAJO families, St. Croix Screen Printing, Cherry Berry, Dairy Queen, and Whiteys.

Our next all-club event is the SAJO End of Season Celebration at SAHS on Thursday evening, May 2. Watch for details to be posted here and on our facebook page. Lots of volunteer opportunities still available for that!

Thank You SAJO Lumberyard girls

Shout Out to the Lumberyard girls!!!
You were a big help to Jasmine after her accident.  You all showed a great deal of  maturity in helping her.   I know she was very upset as I’m sure you  all were as well.  It’s not easy seeing your kneecap relocated on the side  of your leg.  I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t a future doctor among  you.  Parents, be proud of your girls and the way they handled the  situation.  I know I am.
Thanks again from Jasmine and her  family.
