Parents,
The pledge total increases!!! We are now up to $11,795.85. I'd like to once again thank you for all of your support throughout this whole process. These young men have been doing a tremendous job this off-season and the Lift-A-Thon has proven to be another example of that.
The billing statements for the per-pound pledges have been distributed in the players files in the weight room. I'm waiting until tomorrow to put the returned pledge sheets with the copy of your spread sheet into the files until tomorrow - Thursday the 27th. We still have some pledges coming in, so I'd like to make sure that all of you're sponsors are appropriately recognized.
I'll be confirming a place, date, and time for our June meeting by this week. Expect an email soon regarding our summer kick-off meeting. Enjoy the Memorial Day Weekend.
Coach Heppner
Go Red Hawks!!!

Success!! Lift-A-Thon Update
Parents and Players!
What an exciting day. I would like to start off by saying one million thank you's to all the parents who supported our football program throughout the Lift-A-Thon process. Your presence, encouragement, hard work, and positivity truly made this and extraordinary event. With your dedication and help, we were able to raise $11,000.85!! I'm praying that this truly is a sign of the great things to come for our young men as we head into the 2010 season. I will keep you updated on the grand total as more pledges continue to come in over the next couple of weeks.
We have a little over $900.00 of outstanding Per-Pound pledges still out there. I will be giving your sons billing statements with the appropriate amount to be collected on Monday - May 24th. All of your pledge sheets, with a copy of your spreadsheet, will be stapled and placed in each players file in the weight room. Please remind your son's to bring the copy of those items home in order for the appropriate people to be thanked.
Once again, I can't thank you enough for all the time and effort all of you put in to making this event a tremendous success. Enjoy the rest of your week. I'll be seeing all of you very soon.

Just a reminder that if you have all of your pledges for the Lift-A-Thon collected already, will you please have them turned in to me by the end of the school day tomorrow, Friday, May 21st. Any outstanding pledges may be turned in to me the day of the Lift-A-Thon preferably between the hours of 10:30 and 11:30 am. I will be at the school by 10:00 am to make sure everything is in order. All players will receive a billing statement for their per-pound pledges Monday the 24th. I will also be passing out a copy of your individual spreadsheet showing all of your pledges on the the 24th as well.
Also, any players that need to make up any testing they may have missed this week, can do so tomorrow morning at 6:00 am. I'm looking forward to a great day on Saturday. Just another reason why it's great to be a part of this Red Hawk Football Family. Take Care.

Lift-A-Thon Meeting and Workout Updates
Parents and Players,
We are re-scheduling our Lift-A-Thon meeting to Wednesday, April 28th at 7:00 pm in the high school gymnasium. It is extremely important that all of our football parents attend this meeting. We will be passing out all of the letters and important information regarding the Lift-A-Thon that you will need in order to help make this a great success for our program. There are a few other topics that I, and my mother's club would like to discuss as well.
Also, we will be starting our six week morning running sessions every Tuesday and Thursday, beginning Tuesday, April 25th and ending Thursday June, 3rd. Dedication week will start Monday, June 7th and end Friday, June 11th. Every morning session starts at 6:00 am sharp. It is important that all participants show up on time. Anyone participating in a spring sport is expected - but not required - to come on non-game days.
I can't begin to express my excitement and gratitude to all of the people - both players and parents - who have made this off-season one of the best I've ever been apart of. There is a serious feeling of greatness in the air. Not only for our football players, but also for every member of our football family as well. Our job is to never give up, while always believing in ourselves and each other.
Go Red Hawks!!!

Schedule Updates and Reminders
Parents,
We are fast approaching our May 22nd date for the 2nd annual Lift-A-Thon. We are asking that parents start gathering resources regarding donations for our silent auction during this event. Save the date for an important informative meeting regarding the Lift-A-Thon on Monday, May 3rd at 7:00 pm in either the high school cafeteria or auditorium. We'll be sending out an email regarding the exact location at a later date. That being said, we are trying to gather all of the email addresses for our football family members. If you read this blog, but have not received an email from me prompting you to check the blog, please email me at your earliest convenience.
It's hard to believe that our off-season training is almost half-way over and we are now beginning to prepare for spring. I am very proud of our core group of young men that have truly bought into this program and have dedicated many hours of their time to our rigorous weight training and conditioning schedule. We have many young men that are already accomplishing the goals they had set in our post-season meetings only a few months ago. Our philosophy is very simple - be happy with direction your taking yourself and this program - along with the accomplishments you are achieving - but never be satisfied.
Just a couple of updates. We have changed our work week to a Monday through Thursday training schedule. We have found that our workouts are not as affective if we have them on Friday, therefore we will only have our workouts Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Our alternating core, neck, speed and agility training will still begin at 2:45, followed by our workouts at 3:30. Each player has established the routine of an uptempo workout, which usually has them finishing their workout between 4:15 and 4:30. All players that are involved in a spring sport are highly encouraged to attend the core exercise training sessions, Monday and Wednesday mornings, at 6:30 am. It is extremely important that our players maintain their strength involving the core lifts associated with their training while they participate in their spring sport.
Most importantly, any student-athlete failing two classes at the end of the 2010 winter/spring semester, will be ineligible for the 2010 football season. Any player struggling in any of their classes needs to contact me immediately.
The 2010 football season is looking to be an extremely successful year, but their is still much to be done. Thank you again for your time and dedication. Go Red Hawks!
