Hello-

Please take 2 minutes and fill in this emergency form.

If by chance your jumper is at a show, or at practice and you are not there, (first of course a 911 call would happen), then I need emergency phone calls and information you provide.

PLEASE take time to fill this in. One form, per jumper. It's very quick!

TRAVEL TEAM

Uniform check this Friday!-text your friends so no one forgets, SEPTEMBER 18- this Friday!

Wear your warm-ups and bring your polos on Friday! (You don’t have to wear polo whole practice) (have the shorts on)

We will be checking to see how they fit you! And then let the new travel team members try on warmups so they can order the right sizes!

(new members will obviously only have the shorts and socks, some may have warmups, so wear what you have!)

EVERYONE:

The General Board Meeting is this Thursday! 9/17 at 7:15 pm. PLEASE JOIN IN!

Thank you all for coming to the parent meeting. Unfortunately, a few of you could not make it, and therefore have paperwork to go over with your jumper and return.

EVERYONE has access to the Kangaroo Kids handbook here. This is what was discussed at the meeting. We do not print this out, but give you online access to it. The code of conduct, and papers we discussed are from the handbook. Please take your time to read through and learn about the Kangaroo Kids and our organization. Thank you.

Tip of the Week:

When Howard County has a no school day, we will have shows. We have been booked already in Feb and March on days off school. So be looking for that and planning for that. (IF YOUR SCHOOL, still has school, there will be a place on the sign up genius to excuse your jumper for the show)

SERVICE HOUR POSSIBILITIES:

UNIFORMS:

once your jumper knows what size they need, and which item they will need, you will order and pay here ( warm up jackets and pants are only ordered in fall, not kept in stock)

We discussed RaiseRight at the parent meetings:

RAISE RIGHT: Did you know we have a program, to help you earn money, you could earn enough to cover your registration costs. It is called Raise Right. You buy gift cards, can be e-gift, or real plastic ones. And there is an ap on your phone. Easy to use. Use it right at the restaurants, and earn money, for both you and Kangaroo Kids! It is very easy and I use it all the time. NEW, they have TRAVEL (airlines, cruises, rental cars). So now booking through them earns you and Kangaroo Kids money. RaiseRight - Gift Card Fundraiser
