Make sure you stock clear ponchos this week!!

No Pep Rally Friday.

Friday's dress will be announced during 4th block this week.

Guard report time this Friday night is TBA. Green costume..arrive ready!!

Costume and Uniform should only be spot cleaned & really needs to be hung up to dry out after each use. Balling it up in your bag after the game is a sure way to get very stinky fast...lol...same is true for guard gloves...lol.

All procedures/rules apply & are the same as previously posted.


And last but not least...a public service announcement...

Please make sure social sites like facebook and twitter stay clean. Make sure your walls and photos are set to PRIVATE so only you & your friends can see them. Pics, comments, etc. on your page should always represent you & our group well. Check your pages often and make sure to delete any questionable content should it pop up. Think before you post...LOTS of folks read what you say/post on public forums, and that can get you (and us) into very sticky situations. Remember and apply Thumper's rule to all posts/pics..."if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." In 2011 Thumper would prob add..."if you can't post or load something nice online, then don't post or load any content at all."

If you are a parent and your daughter has a smart phone/laptop/ipad/ipod type device we strongly suggest that you have one too...if they have a fb or twitter you should at least consider having them too and also access to their accounts. Kids under the age of 18 they are children posting/playing in what can easily become a very adult online world. Sadly, we don't live in the past where girls used a diary or journal to vent their feelings, they don't use a format that only they or you see & read. Today the things they write and pictures they post (even set to private) are seen and circulate thru the whole community...not just because it's Oak Grove and people talk, but simply because the kids put it out there for the all to see and it is the social media world we live in today.
