Forms
Almost completed with all Forms. Any missing forms were handed out tonight. Please return as soon as possible to Coach Auger or to the office.
Fees
State Fees are around $90. Player Pack will be around $140. Once we get final price quotes from printers, we'll let you know and you will be asked to go to the main office at NHS and pay all fees. This will be next week or the week after
Fundraisers
Ligori's Pizza and Patriot Car Wash are both local fundraisers. Players can work directly with these vendors. If you are interested, please contact Bridgette Bertagnoli via email for more info at:
bertags@msn.com
Also, players can sell RIDGE SOCCER FAN shirts. These shirt were funded by our two corporate sponsors. We've agreed to sell these to family members and NHS students for $5. But, players can sell these at a higher price to extended family, neighbors or co-workers for more than $5. Players can either check out shirts from Coach Auger after practices and return $5 per shirt OR take shirt orders ahead of time. So if Grandma wants a shirt and wants to donate $20, then the team gets $5 and the player keeps $15 to apply to fees. They can also sell NHS sandles for increased prices.
Photographers
Our offical team photographer is Neil Adams Photography. He'll also be at most games. We charges a small fee at the end of the season if you'd like to buy his packages. He's barely covering his costs. Plan on $20 to $30 is you are interested. His number is 801 309-0201 and email is ourcameraguy.smugmug.com.
We've also asked several parents to take photos at practices to help capture the season. If anyone takes a great photo and would like to share, please email them to:
