Player / Parent Potluck Dinner
In keeping with a long standing tradition, our team held its annual Player / Parent Potluck Dinner on Friday, October 6 at the Fresno City College Staff Dinning Room. The purpose of the dinner is to give the parents an opportunity to get to know each other as they will be spending many hours together throughout the season. In previous year’s, our parents have done a fantastic job of showing support at both our home and away games, and I expect this year to be no different.
The dinner also gave me an opportunity to inform the parents of how our team is progressing both on and off the court, as well as what areas we need to improve upon. We also use this time to ask the parents for help in certain areas of our basketball program, such as the upcoming Dinner/Dance Fundraiser. Lastly, the parents are given an order-form so they can purchase t-shirts for themselves and family members.
The dinner was a big success as all of our parents left with a better understanding of what it is we do on a daily basis. More importantly, everyone appeared to have a fun time.
