As you may have noticed yesterday, the field needs to be re-lined. Amanda has come to the conclusion that she is not gifted in the way of spray painting a straight line. SO, we need some volunteers who would be willing to help Jeff Chandler out with the measuring tape and diagram sometime in the next week. Please contact Jeff Chandler at JChandler@lymtech.com.
Here is the first of many Stix Weekly posts. Each week there will be a post with everything (well, we’ll try) you’ll need to know for the upcoming week and near future. There will be a ‘Program Wide’ section as well as individual team sections.

Thanks for supporting Newport Harbor Field Hockey, Men!
Two of our Newport Harbor Field Hockey Alumni will begin their seasons this Friday! Coach Judy Schaefer and some current players are making the trip up to Cal Berkley’s Maxwell Field to watch their games. Good luck to both teams!
The two teams will face one another in a conference event on Saturday, September 18.

The Parent Meeting this Wednesday (August 25 at 7 p.m.) will be held in the teachers dining room, Room #138, at Newport Harbor High School. The closest parking lot for this room is the Senior Lot off 15th Street. Walk straight through the quad between Dodge Hall and Beek Hall toward the Library. We will do our best to make it easy and clear to find.
Also, a reminder to download the Player Fees & Registration Form and bring it to the meeting (if you have not already mailed it in).
See you Wednesday!
