The Spring GV Crew 2023 Season Has Arrived!

We always know its time for GV Crew because it's always right after Groundhog Day! GVCO has been hard at work assembling a number of pieces over the past 6 or 8 weeks to assure a successful start to the season. The group pulled off a fantastic BJB fundraising event in late January, which has helped us kick-start the season. We have lined up a good coaching staff, have inventoried the equipment, begun developing the spring seasons schedule and are ready to start training for the season.

GVCO has reached out with a number of parents who have volunteered to help out this season, but as always, there is a need for additional volunteers. Kerry Calvancanto has volunteered to take the lead to work with a group of parents who will be in charge of communicating "everything GV Crew" to the team, crew families and the community. Evan Avgerinos has agreed to take the lead on a committee of parents to handle all of the hospitality at this springs events. Dorothy Bickell will be taking on the role as treasurer keeping all of the finances in order. And, we haven't reached out to her yet, but we are hoping Jacquelin Moore will be handling the Yard Sign Fundraiser. There are a number of other role to fill, but most in need at this point:

•  A couple of parents to help further develop the schedule, communicating/coordinating with the coaching staff. Ideally someone who is somewhat familiar/versed in the sport; and/or been involved in our GV Crew program in the past.
• A couple of parents that can help keeping the equipment in order, to insure that it is in good working condition (either "hands on" or finding the right resources to repair/fix those things that need attention)

I think the first order of business is to get the entire group on a virtual Teams organizational call. We will be doing this on Monday evening, February 13th at 8:00PM. The expectation will be that the meeting will last for about 45 minutes. The further expectation will be that at least one parent for each registered GV Crew athlete will be on the call.
