Hello everyone. This message is for the parents who have a boy in 3rd and 4th grade. The following is from Mrs. Fuiten at CCS. "I know it’s a bit early, but 3rd and 4th grade boys basketball usually starts around November. Before we start scheduling games, I need to know how many kids are interested. Please email me if your child is interested in playing 3rd and 4th grade boys basketball this season. It usually runs from November-February. Thank you" If your young man is willing to play basketball for the 3rd and 4th grade team please send me an email at ksmith@nhm88.com so I can pass that information to her. NHM will not provide transportation for practices or games . If you have any questions or concerns please let me know. Thank you and have a great day.

Attention Baseball Parents: This is Howie Fuiten’s last year coaching Carroll baseball. Some parents have the idea to give him a gift for helping so many young boys over the years.

You can also Venmo Kim @Kim-Alley-8. Thanks so much! Kim Alley (Evan and Bryson’s mom)
