Please sign up for food and drink for our High Schoolers for each of their events. If everyone signs up for at least one fruit or snack and one beverage we will be covered and it won't be a burden on any one person.
Make sure all High School food and drinks are well labeled "Girls MS" as we have two team tents (boys and girls) and two levels (MS/HS) in each tent. If a container/cooler needs to be returned to the owner, please also have it labeled with your name so we can make sure it gets returned.
Snacks can be either brought by a parent to a meet and delivered to the Team Camp, dropped off at the bus loading (HS) time to ride on the bus, or given to the athlete to bring.
Drinks - Water, gatorade or chocolate milk. For gatorade purchase, small containers of the sports beverage are acceptable otherwise it sometimes gets wasted. This can be brought in a cooler with ice. Water can be chilled or not chilled. A nice replenisher is chocolate milk... this definitely needs to come well chilled in a cooler with small paper cups.
Snacks - We encourage healthy snack options such as: granola bars, cliff bars, string cheese, small bags of chex mix etc.
Fruit - Bananas, apples, orange wedges, grapes, or slices of watermelon are some suggestions
Please be mindful of any allergies. If we have a nut allergy, we will post it on the website.
We are utilizing Signup Genius for each event. Click on the Link to sign up
