Reminder: O'Fallon Lacrosse Community Town Hall Meeting Tonight, Tuesday, 9 Aug, 7 PM, Katy Cavins Center
O’Fallon Lacrosse Community,
Just a quick reminder we are having our Town Hall Meeting Tonight, Tuesday, 9 Aug, 7 PM at the Katy Cavins Center in O’Fallon, IL.
The agenda is listed below.
Hope to see everyone tonight!
Dave Boots
O'Fallon Lacrosse Community,
First thank you to everyone that reached out to keep the Styx Youth Lacrosse program running. From those volunteers we formed a small working group to chart a way forward and Coach Nick Rowe is leading up that effort. Our next step is to have a Lacrosse Community Town Hall Meeting Tuesday, 9 Aug, 7 PM, Katy Cavins Center to bring everyone together. Here's the agenda:
1) Build a community board of directors and ratify a club charter. Each volunteer board member will be responsible for a small part of running the administration, equipment, social media, player recruiting, and coach coordination. Dave has offered to be a club mentor and train each volunteer board member over the next year to ensure everyone is comfortable executing their roles.
2) Create a high school integration program that offers high school lacrosse players the opportunity to learn leadership skills through a combination of volunteer service and paid work.
3) Developing a high school feeder-style player development system that standardizes learning objectives and performance goals for each age group. An organized development system will normalize our children's coaching experience and help new coaches develop effective practice plans.
We are calling all parties who want to see this club survive and thrive through this transition to attend a town hall meeting at 7 PM on 9 Aug at Katy Cavins Community Center. We will outline our plan, discuss the club charter, and solicit board members. This message is a call for our community to step off of the sidelines and onto the field. We'll see you all on 9 Aug!
