Pictures, and End of the Year
Right now, it looks like Friday, March 13th is going to be our end-of-the-year recognition night. We are hoping to get the Junior High facility, and have the use of the gym and cafeteria there. Our tentative schedule will be as follows:
6-6:30 JH Boys vs. Dads/Older Brothers Game
6:30-7:15 Potluck Dinner and Fellowship Time
7:15 - 8 Player and Coaches Recognition
8 - 8:30 Girls vs. Moms/Older Sisters Game
8:30 - 9:30 Varsity Boys vs. Dads
For the potluck, RHAA will provide paper goods and drinks. Please e-mail me as to whether you family is able to come, and a rough estimate of how many people you will have coming.
Remember, uniforms need to be turned in at this date, if you haven't already. Girls and Varsity Boys - please don't wear your uniform for the scrimmage - we will plan to use the gold practice jerseys (for the girls) and the older jerseys that Hickles have (for the guys). JH Boys - please bring your uniform, if you still have it, and we may or may not use them for the games in the evening. If we do use them, our family will just take them home and take care of washing them. Also, we'll hand out the pictures (if we have them in by then).
As always, ask if you have any questions! I hope that everyone can make this date - it's always a great wrap-up to the season, and a wonderful chance to fellowship with other families.

Tomorrow's Games
Well, inevitably, we have had a schedule change since that supposed "final" e-mail. :)
Because of some facility issues on the Lebanon side of things, our games tomorrow (Monday, Feb. 23rd) are going to be played at Camden Christian School, IN Camdenton (same location as Thursday night - Varsity Guys, it's the same place we usually play Camdenton, check website for directions). We will still be playing against the Lebanon Rockets. Our games will be played at the following times (notice time changes, 30 minutes later) --
6:00 pm - JH Boys
7:00 pm - GOLD Girls
8:15 pm - Varsity Boys
Camdenton is a little further than Lebanon (1:15 rather than 1:00), but the games have been moved back 30 minutes, so here are departure times --
Halls (and any JH Boys families) leaving Rolla from Kroger at 4:15 pm.
Girls need to leave by 5:15
Varsity Guys by 6:30
Please reply to this so that we know you got the message! Also, let us know your driving plans.
Thanks in advance for being flexible, and sorry if this causes any problems for you.

JH Boys and Girls -- more about tonight's game
- #1 --The church you are looking for is Bible Baptist Church -- it seems like it used to be the only church along there, but the last few times we've gone, we really have to search for it... the school sign in very little, so hopefully knowing the church name will help.
- There is more than one way to get to Camdenton, and the directions we posted last night may have confused some of you, because I don't think it is the "usual" route. I decided to try it last year after we had kids get carsick on the usual route, and I found that it was just as fast, probably because you stay on the Interstate longer, and don't have long sections of hilly, windy roads. So that is the way we usually go now. But feel free to go the other "alternate" way if you prefer -- directions to both are now on the website...
Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Correction
Becky
Basketball Update (hopefully the final one!)
- Halls are leaving at 4 pm from Kroger. We will have several seats. Please let us know what your travel plans are - 1. if you need a ride, 2. if you are driving and have extra seats, 3. if your family would like to meet at Kroger, but will not have extra seats, or 4. if your family is driving by themselves.
- Directions on website
- This has been changed to a Blue team game, because we felt that the Blue team against their 14U team (the team from the tournament) would be a more competitive game than our Gold team playing the 16U team.
- The game will be played at Rolla Junior High, starting as soon as we can after the JH boys' game. Arrive around 6:30.
- Halls will be leaving from Kroger at 4:00 pm for the JH boys' game. We recommend that you leave by 5:00 pm for your game.
- Please let us know what your travel plans are -
2. if you are driving at 5 pm and have extra seats,
3. if your family would like to meet at Kroger, but will not have extra seats,
4. if your family is driving by themselves. .
- The game will be played at the Cowan Civic Center, directions are posted on the website (it's the same location the JH tournament was at).
Tuesday, Feb. 24th - Practice at Redeemer Lutheran Gym, 7 - 9pm
Thursday, Feb. 26th - Pictures and BLUE Game vs. Houston Warriors, 6 pm
- PICTURE DAY! We will be having them taken directly before the game (info on that below). Location: Avalon Studio in downtown Rolla, 110 W. 8th St., right down from Alex's Pizza (the studio was formerly Kent Jewelery). Those of you who are interested in an individual picture, please arrive at 4:45 pm, dressed in your uniform. If you are not interested in an individual shot, then please arrive at 5:15 pm, in your uniform, for the team photo. Remember, for a team and individual, the price is $12.00. Attached is an order form with pricing on additional prints.
- The BLUE game will be at 6 pm, Rolla Junior High. Please plan to go over there as soon as we are finished with the team photo.
- The Halls will be leaving Rolla from OAT Theatre at 12:45. Please let us know ASAP if you would like a ride from us at this time. Otherwise, please let us know what your travel plans are.
- Games will be played at the MO School for the Death, directions on the website. This is our last scheduled event of the season.
We will also plan to have an end-of-the-year recognition pot-luck/parent vs. kid game (? depending on what the parents are up for. . .) sometime early in March. Right now, the dates we are looking at are:
Sunday afternoon or evening, March 8th
Friday night, March 13th
Sunday afternoon or evening, March 15th
Please let us know if you have known conflicts for any of these dates! We will keep you posted on what we decide.
Thanks, Becky

RE: Tuesday night games
I will be taking Emily. My Grandmother lives in Houston, so we will be visiting her before or after. We would be willing to take up to 5 with us as long as they wouldn’t mind either going a little earlier, or waiting to return a little later. (My Grandma is in the nursing home, and we would only stay about 30 min.)

Boy, do I (and Ryan) remember that carpet!!!!!
Thanks again, we'll drive straight from our home south of Salem. It's less than 40 miles to Houston, so it is one of our shorter drives -- about 43-44 miles. We'll plan to arrive during the girls game. Do we know what color they'll wear? Should we bring practice whites?

Tuesday night games vs. Houston Wellspring
- Girls Blue Team at 6 pm
- Boys at 7:15 pm
Games will be held at Faith Fellowship Church (the same place as last year, for those who went). It is a carpeted gym, so we highly recommend knee pads if you have them to wear -- several of our players ended up with some pretty bad rug burns last year.
To carpool, meet at the Rolla Kmart Parking Lot -- girls meet at 4:30 pm/ guys at 5:30 pm.
- Girls: Only Abby and Becky are going from the Hall family, but our 12 psgr van is available to go, if an adult will drive it. Otherwise, our daughters will need a ride with someone else.
- Guys: The Hickles have 7 seats available in their van
To ease our minds that everyone is covered, please let us know what your plans are for getting to the games. Thanks!
Directions below -- (if you go to Google Maps directly, you'll need to adjust the final step --the church is actually 5 miles out of town on Highway 17) Basically, south on 63 into Houston, then turn right on Highway 17, go 5 miles west.

Picture schedule addressed in a separate email...
survey
I'm trying to set up a picture schedule that will work for everyone, and I know that at least one of the girls will be gone from this Sunday to almost the end of the season...but I have no idea who else might have other conflicts...
So, I'm looking at two possibilities to get it done right away, neither of which is perfect...
- Friday night, at the end of practice (7:30 pm) or
- Saturday, between the two girls games or after the second girls game (due to theatre rehearsal conflicts, before the games won't work)
Or, do you think we should just wait until the end of the season (Feb 26th probably)
Thanks
Let me know ASAP

game tonight
We will start as soon after 6 pm as we can get everything ready. I'm pretty sure the school teams will be practicing until 5:30 pm, so I don't know what time we will actually be able to get into the gym. Please lay low until it appears the building is pretty much cleared out -- they really don't want us to overlap the school teams, which is why we aren't supposed to start using the facility until 6:00 pm
Another email is coming with updates for the rest of the month. We have several schedule adjustments and clarifications to make.

Pictures coordinator needed
Becky suggested we solicit a volunteer(s) to coordinate this project. We will set the date, but the the volunteer(s) would:
- distribute order forms to all players ahead of time
- attend the picture session, collect forms and payment
- arrange with photographer to pickup photos when ready
- distribute finished pictures to players
Please let us know if you can help in this way, and we'll pass along all the necessary information.

directions to Truman Elementary School
Take 10th street east from Highway 63 (or west from Forum). At the intersection of 10th and Holloway, go north. This will take you right by the Centre. Keep going north until Holloway comes to a "T" at 18th street. Turn right, and you will see the school on your left. I'm not sure where the gym is -- it should be pretty easy to figure out, though.
Team/individual pictures?
Basic cost is $12 for an 8x10 team photo and a 5x7 individual photo in a nice folder. Additional pictures, including "trading cards" can also be purchased.
We'll only schedule pictures if enough people are interested, but we'd like everyone to be there even if you aren't planning on buying pictures. We will definitely try to find a time to schedule doesn't involve another trip to town!
Please respond to this email by Monday if you are interested.

rest of week's schedule
Tomorrow night, Thursday, is NOT a practice. The Rolla 7th grade girls SIR team is hosting our GOLD team for an informal scrimmage at Truman Elementary school. Parents and others are welcome to come watch, but only the GOLD team will be playing.
(We are working on getting a scrimmage set up with the other SIR team for the blue team)
Friday night is a practice for everyone, at the Middle School, from 7 - 9 pm.
