Westland Park Opening

The City of Peoria opened up a park nearby and adjacent to the school Nicole attends. I made numerous attempts at getting a volleyball net installed, but the response I received "was there wasn't enough room". When we moved into this neighborhood, the park was suppose to back up to some residential homes at the end of our street. Instead the school and the park were flipped and now the school backs up to these homes. Lots of politics and shame on Shea homes for not delivering what they promised. Nicole's school, Lake Pleasant, combined with her former school, Vistancia, for the 7th/8th grade bands and performed at the ribbon cutting ceremony.

Volleyball/Football Banquet

Had a great time organizing the combined volleyball and football banquet with Coach Greg Bushaw this year. The football team was undefeated and they lost the final game by only 1 point, so they were District Runners Up. Way to go Coach Bushaw on such a tremendous season! All the players walked away with awesome gifts. Nicole received a "Most Dedicated" award that was voted on by her teammates. I gave all the volleyball and football players their own DVD copies. Jamie and Todd Wills purchased District Runners Up tshirts with all the players' names on the back for each player and for Coach Bushaw. A football banner was presented to the team and school.

Lake Pleasant Volleyball 2011

Nicole was the setter for her school team this year. She did an awesome job, as well as all the other players. Now it's on to Club Arrowhead volleyball. We just can't get enough!

Lake Pleasant Cross Country

It's been some time since I've last posted. I've been very involved in the three sports teams at Nicole's school, collecting photos, taking videos, and creating DVDs for football, volleyball, and cross country. All the players were given DVDs as gifts at their sports banquets. I even created the handout program for the banquets and spent many evenings up until 1:00 am in the morning. Enjoy!
