The Weekly Rundown -- Summer Edition
From Principal Garvey
As summer is now in full swing, I hope everyone is getting out and enjoying all the festivals that are going on in the area. You will find my wife and I =E2=80=9CStorming the Bastille=E2=80=9D this Thursday evening running through the streets of downtown. We'll likely not break any records but it's always a good time!
TAD=E2=80=99s Agreements - We are working to finish all agreements this week so that they can be sent out during the week of July 16. Please keep an eye out in your email for your tuition agreement notification.
Cook position - As I explained last week, we are switching lunch vendors to Taher, Inc. and they are looking for an individual to fill the position as the lunch cook Monday through Friday with 35 hours/week. No experience is necessary as Taher, Inc. will train and certify the right candidate. If you are interested in this position, please email the school and we will forward your information to Taher, Inc.
Following His plan,
Mr. Garvey

Fall Fest News
Mark your calendars for Sept. 7-9 for the St. Charles Fall Fest, a three-day festival with food, music, games and rides and fun for the entire family. Save the Date now and spend the weekend at St. Charles!
For now we have two volunteer-related items for Fall Fest:
* Do you typically volunteer at Fall Fest with a group of your friends or family? Would you like to volunteer with a group? This year Fall Fest organizers are offering early sign up to groups that can fill an entire shift (typically 6 to 10 or more volunteers) such as a group of food servers, bartenders, beer angels, parking lot attendants, etc.
Start getting your group together and think about what shift you would like to take. Please email Volunteer Coordinator Jane Walloch if you are interested in helping.
* Cabana Volunteers Needed: The couple who has been running the Cabana Bar at Fall Fest is retiring after this year. The Fall Fest Committee is looking for another couple who would like to take it over next year. Ideally the new couple would shadow the current Cabana managers. This is a fun volunteer job where you have the chance to socialize with and meet new parishioners. If the job appears too big for one couple then maybe find another couple and share duties. If interested please contact Kelly or Dave Von Rueden at Dave.vonrueden@gmail.com.
Sports Camps Keep Students Busy This Summer
If you're looking for ways to keep your kids active this summer here are a few sports-related activities:
Basketball Clinic every Thursday night: Crusaders Basketball Skills Clinics are ideal for players who are serious about improving specific areas of their game: dribbling, ball handling, shooting form and accuracy, footwork, overall hoops IQ, building up aggressiveness and confidence and developing a positive work ethic. The clinic is from 7 pm to 8:30 pm in the gym. More information here.
Crusaders 10,000 Shot Club: Shoot 10,000 shots at game speed between May 20 and September 30. The 10,000 Shot Club is voluntary. It=E2=80=99s about giving boys and girls who are serious about improving as basketball players the structure to work on their game outside of school. A few shooting drills have been provided that can be completed in the driveway, at the park or at the gym. Students can complete these alone or with a partner. More information here.
St. Charles 2018 Crusader Basketball Camp: This three-day camp runs Tuesday, July 24 through Thursday, July 26 and is open to students heading into 4th through 8th Grades. More information here.
Crusader Boys Volleyball Camp Aug. 7-10: Open to all boys heading into 5th through 8th Grades, this three-day camp emphasizes fundamental volleyball skills. More information here. Please note that the Girls Volleyball camp is full.
St. Joan of Arc Catholic School in Nashotah is hosting a basketball skills clinic where student athletes learn new techniques and they also learn how to compete as Catholics. The clinic is called Be Light. The clinic is open to incoming boys and girls in 5th through 8th grades and the sessions are every Wednesday from 5 pm to 6:30 pm. More information here.
SCRIP Volunteers Needed in July/August
We're in need of volunteers who can sell SCRIP after the 5 pm Mass on Saturdays in July and one week in August. Each shift is about 30-45 minute. No worries if you've never sold before -- it's easy to handle and we'll teach you. This is a great way to get a jump start on service hours for the 2018-2019 School Year. If you can help any of these dates: July 14 and July 28 please contact Rebecca Dibb, the new SCRIP Coordinator. Thank you in advance for your help.
Calendar Note: Our school calendar is set for the 2018-2019 School Year with the exception of grading and report card dates. Those dates will be finalized with the School Leadership Team and Mr. Garvey, and they do not affect any days not in session. This is a link to the 2018-2019 School Calendar.
School Office open all summer: Summer hours for the School Office are 9 am to 2 pm Monday through Friday. If you call when no one is in the School Office please leave a message and we will return the call. Please also email your questions to school@stcharleshartland.org.
