As it has warmed up, we are moving outside for track practice. Going forward all Track practices will be at EGF Senior High School. Please bring a sweatshirt and sweat pants to every practice. Athletes will not be allowed to practice without a sweat shirt and sweat pants. Hats and gloves are strongly encourage as well.
As track moves outside, powerlifting will be moving as well to EGF Senior High School Practice nights will now move to Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:30 to 6:30 (prior to track)
Special Olympics Grand Forks has their annual Pie and Ice Cream Social this Sunday at Holy Family Church. If you’re a pie-making master, an amateur pie-artist, or the beginning pie-making journeyman, we need your help!
A crucial element of a Pie and Ice Cream Social is the pie. So, if you would, let us know if you are willing and able to make and donate a pie. We’ve created a link below for keeping track of varieties (so we don’t end up with all lemon meringue).
If it doesn’t work for you to drop off your pie, just give us a heads up and we can pick it up.
Where: Holy Family Church
1018 18th Avenue South
Grand Forks, ND 58201
When: Sunday, March 18th after the 7:30 a.m., 9:00 a.m., and 11:00 a.m. services.
| Sport | Starting Date |
Nights | Time | Location |
| Track & Field * | Monday, March 26 | Monday & Wednesday | 6:30 to 7:30 | Central HS |
| Power Lifting ** | Monday, March 26 | Monday & Thursday | 6:30 to 7:30 | Central HS |
| Volleyball | Monday, March 26 | Monday & Thursday | 6:30 to 7:30 | South MS |
| Swimming | Monday, April 2 | Monday & Thursday | 5:00 to 6:00 | Central HS |
* Practices will move outside it is nice enough. Outside practices will be held at EGF Senior High School Track. Once outside, we will be holding practice until 8:00.
** Once Track & Field moves outside to EGF, weight lifting will move to EGF Senior High School as well. Practices will move to 5:30 to 6:30 on Mondays and Thursday at the Weight Room.
If you play volleyball and track or power lifting and track, you will have a time conflict on Monday evenings as both practices are held at the same time. What we would like you to do is alternate Mondays so that the first Monday of the month, you attend Volleyball/Power Lifting; the second Monday, attend track; the third Monday, attend Volleyball/Power Lifting; and the fourth Monday, attend track practices.

To: Athletes, Families, Care Providers and Coaches
From: Meredith Baumann, Area 5 Director
Date: 3/1/12
We are approaching our last few practices for this basketball season. It has been a good practice season. We had a wonderful number of Athletes and coaches this year. I thank all of the coaches for the time they have given us.
We are leaving for Minot on Friday 3/9/12 at 5:30 a.m. SHARP. Please be at the State office parking lot by 5:20 a.m. We will return to Grand Forks around 5:00 or 6:00 p.m. on Saturday 3/10/12. The time is an estimate and we will have someone give your rides a call so that you can be picked up promptly after we arrive home.
Please label your coats and suitcases with your name, so that identification of these items will be easier for loading and unloading, both in Minot and when we get back to Grand Forks.
You must have your own black shorts or sweat pants and tennis shoes ready when you get off the bus as you will be playing on Friday morning. You will get a uniform top from your coach to wear during tournament games. If you want to wear a t shirt under your jersey, we recommend a black.
Jewelry will not be allowed to be worn during competition. Please pack warm clothes as the weather may change.
If you have medications that you need help with during the trip, they must be packaged in individual bags and identified with your name, the name of the medication and the time and date it is to be given. Our volunteers will not give suppositories, rectal creams, or similar preparations. Please bring your own supply of gloves if other lotions are to be applied.
While in Minot, we will be staying at the Vegas 701-839-3000. Please call me if you have any questions before we leave. I can be reached at 772-8626 after 5 p.m. daily or e-mail me at area5sond@hotmail.com.
Let’s get ready to have fun in Minot!
GO GRAND FORKS
