NORTHERN KENTUCKY SOCCER

After a successful week of soccer camp last summer, I am delighted to announce this year’s confirmed camp dates. As we did last year the camps will be held at the Villa Hills Soccer Fields. All of the information including dates and the ability to register can be found at the following website:

www.SRSoccerCamps.com

I hope everyone is as excited about these summer camps as I am!

To ensure a quality camp and maximize the experience for the kids we will be limiting the amount of attendees we will allow to sign up for each week. Because of this I urge you to sign up quickly to ensure that your son or daughter doesn't miss out! Please reach out with any questions, I look forward to seeing you and your child at a camp this summer!

Yours in soccer,

Stu Riddle

This safe environment program for children has been mandated by the Bishop of the United States for all employees and volunteers who in any way deal with children in Catholic Schools: therefore if you have not attended a Virtus presentation, then you cannot volunteer - this includes volunteering in the cafeteria, on the playground or as a field trip chaperone. If you would like to register to attend a Virtus session, please go the the website at www.virtus.org. The password is "TRUST".
