XC Holiday Party- A note from TQ and Mom :)

Hi all
 
TQ and I are excited to host the holiday gift exchange (for the kids) and the cookie exchange for the Moms
 
When:Dec 9th 6:45/7pm (or whenever you can arrive after dinner) 
Where: Williamson/deLaski home 20231 Millstead Dr Ashburn
Details for gift exchange: Each teen will bring a wrapped gift in the $15 range, please keep gender neutral and a gift that your child would be happy leaving with (don't want someone leaving with a roll of toilet paper). This is how I plan to do the swap..."Pick a number from a hat, the first participant (with number 1) unwraps a gift from the pile and then shows it to everyone. The next player can either "steal" an already opened gift or be adventurous and go for a wrapped gift from the pile. If the participant chooses to steal an unwrapped gift, the person whose gift is stolen now repeats his/her turn and either steals another person's gift (he cannot immediately steal back the gift that was just stolen from him) or unwraps a new gift. At the end of the game #1 can choose from all the gifts. Any gift that has been stolen 3 times is considered dead and can't be taken again"
Details for Cookie Exchange: If you want to participate, bake cookies 3-4 dozen yummy cookies  on a tray and an empty container to bring a variety home with you. Let's try to avoid a whole bunch of people bringing chocolate chip cookies. Bring a few extra to add to the tray for people to eat during the party.
 
Let me know who's attending :)

XC- Trick or Treat Run

Good Afternoon Parents,

Next week we will have our second annual trick or treat run on Thursday, October 20th from 4-7PM. This is a special run when the team dresses in costume and runs throughout the Lansdowne neighborhood for Tricks and Treats. For every trick they get a treat. At each stop ( a house) you will have a trick for the kids to complete, for example 60 second plank then they get a treat ( candy, water, snack, etc). I will assign each house on the list a trick for them to complete before they get there treat. Below are a list of ways you can help with this special run. Please note practice is a bit longer on this day as we have a Halloween team trivia and party after the run. A few items you should know: The team will come together, we have about 60 runners, we will start our run at 4 30 and end by 6. Therefore if we come to your house you would need to be present from 4 30- 6, or you can leave the treat and trick at the door for us if you are not able to be home. I will give you the order we plan to come so that you have an idea when we will make it there.

 

How you can help:

1) Be a house stop for our run. Send me your address so I can add you to the list!

2) Donate Candy or Treats ( Desserts) for the Post Run Party, they can be dropped off anytime before Thursday or on the day of the event prior to 300 in the main office, please label XC.

 

Thank you for your support!

XC- Note from Mrs. Logan

Since we are only having 2 Pasta Dinners the night before Wednesday meets this year, we have come up with an OPTIONAL idea for getting your runner pasta on the other nights. We have arranged with Manhattan PIzza’s “Take 5 Student Athlete Box Meal Plan” for pasta deliveries after selected Tuesday practices. If you sign your runner up and pay for this program, a pasta meal will be delivered to RVHS after XC practice on three Tuesdays. For $8 per meal, your runner will get an individually boxed pasta entree, a bottle of water, and 3 sides (the sides will vary depending on availability). Your runner can choose to hang out at the school and eat with fellow runners or take it home. The time of the delivery will be decided by the coaches. The meals should be there by the end of practice.

 
There are 3 dates we will have the meals delivered. In order to participate in this program, you must agree to and pay for all 3 dates for a total of $24. Please note that the total per meal (with tax and delivery) will be around $7 and some change. I have rounded up to $8 to make it easier. All leftover money will go to the XC team funds. 
 
This is the breakdown:
 
 9/20 Spaghetti w/Marinara Sauce ($8)
10/18 Baked Ziti ($8)
10/25 Spaghetti w/Marinara Sauce ($8)
 
Total: $24 for the 3 meals. You must agree to all 3 meals!!! No substitutions of entrees. Must agree to what is offered.
 
Again each meal will come with a bottle of water and 3 sides. The sides are chosen by Manhattan and will vary each week. The options include baguette, salad, fruit cup, gold fish, granola bar, carrots, cookies, etc.
 
How to Sign Up:
Email me at riversidehighxc@gmail.com with your runner’s name and how you plan to pay ($24 total). Orders due no later than Sept. 18; Payment due no later than Sept. 19!
 
There are 3 ways to pay:
1. If you have a paypal account, you can pay directly through paypal at stulogan@outlook.com
2. You can mail or drop off your $24 (cash or checks payable to Julie Logan) to 18773 Upper Meadow Dr. Leesburg, VA 20176. Include your name and email address and “Manhattan Pasta Meal" on the envelope.
3. Send your $24 (in an envelope marked Julie Logan) with your runner to give to Justin Logan. Include your name and email address and “Manhattan Pasta Meal" on the envelope.
 
I must have all orders by the end of the day Sunday September 18. I must have all payment by the end of the day Monday September 19!! If I do not receive payment, I will remove your runner’s name off of the list for the 3 meals. I know this is a quick turnaround, but these meals are a last minute idea!
 
Please remember this is optional! It is no problem if this is not suited for your runner!! It’s just an idea and we’ll see how it goes!!
 
Thanks!

The meals should be there by the end of practice.
 
There are 4 dates we will have the meals delivered. In order to participate in this program, you must agree to and pay for all 4 dates for a total of $32. Please note that the total per meal (with tax and delivery) will be around $7 and some change. I have rounded up to $8 to make it easier. All leftover money will go to the XC team funds. 
 
This is the breakdown:
 
9/20 Spaghetti w/Marinara Sauce ($8)
10/4 Baked Ziti ($8)
10/18 Spaghetti w/Marinara Sauce ($8)
10/25 Baked Ziti ($8)
 
Total: $32 for the 4 meals. You must agree to all 4 meals!!! No substitutions of entrees. Must agree to what is offered.
 
Again each meal will come with a bottle of water and 3 sides. The sides are chosen by Manhattan and will vary each week. The options include baguette, salad, fruit cup, gold fish, granola bar, carrots, cookies, etc.
 
How to Sign Up:
Email me at riversidehighxc@gmail.com with your runner’s name and how you plan to pay ($32 total).
 
There are 3 ways to pay:
1. If you have a paypal account, you can pay directly through paypal at stulogan@outlook.com
2. You can mail or drop off your $32 (cash or checks payable to Julie Logan) to 18773 Upper Meadow Dr. Leesburg, VA 20176. Include you’re name and email address and “Pasta Meal" on the envelope.
3. Send your $32 (in an envelope marked Julie Logan) with your runner to give to Justin Logan. Include your name and email address and “Pasta Meal" on the envelope.
 
I must have all orders by the end of the day Sunday September 18. I must have all payment by the end of the day Monday September 19!! If I do not receive payment, I will remove your runner’s name off of the list for the 4 meals. I know this is a quick turnaround, but these meals are a last minute idea!
 
Please remember this is optional! It is no problem if this is not suited for your runner!! It’s just an idea and we’ll see how it goes!!
 
Thanks!
