Friday Night Carb-Loading Dinners

The first Learwood Cross Country Team Dinner will take place this Friday, August 27th following Friday's practice in the Learwood cafeteria. Thank you to Vanessa Furrer, Samantha Fowkes, CeCe Carlson, Traci Wansack, Rebecca Thieken for assisting with the first dinner. Please plan on picking your child up from the dinner around 5:00/5:15pm at the front entrance of Learwood.

I am looking for volunteers to prepare the carb-loading dinners on the following dates (typically five to six people are needed for each dinner):

* Friday, September 3rd
* Friday, September 10th
* Friday, September 17th
* Friday, October 1st
* Friday, October 8th

We are omitting Friday, September 24th as the school calendar is showing an Activity Night at the school that day and Friday, October 15th is NEOEA Day (no school) so we will determine at a later date what we will be doing since this is the day before the SWC Championship.

The typical carb-loading dinner consists of:

2 pans of buttered egg noodles
2 pans of pasta with sauce
garlic bread
dessert (brownies/cookies)
water bottles
plates/napkins/forks

These items are easily split amongst the five - six volunteers. We have already secured the cafeteria for each of the remaining five dates. Typically the volunteers for the dinner will arrive around 4:15pm to set up the food in the cafeteria. Once the runners are done with practice, they grab their things and head to the cafeteria to eat. The volunteers clean up after the kids are done eating and wait to ensure all the kids have been picked up. It's pretty simple and the kids truly enjoy the dinners!!

Please e-mail me at lglasser4321@oh.rr.com if you can be a volunteer for one of the dates or if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Linda Glasser
