The following letter was handed out to all parents: Dear Parents, For several years now, Brookville Gymnastics has continually grown beyond expectations. Along with this, so has the Parent Organization. While involvement of all parents is crucial, the size of the meetings needs to be reduced. This leads to a restructuring of the Parents Meeting. The meetings will now be held like a board meeting, as this is not uncommon for any professional organization to be run this way. The goal of this restructuring is to make a more efficient, organized, and professional organization. As was tried last year, there will be a Parent Representative for each level. This Representative will be responsible for attending the meetings and presenting any questions, concerns, and suggestions their level may have. The meetings will also include Kellie, & the current Officers. The benefits for this restructuring are 3-fold: 1. All parents can be represented at all meetings. 2. More efficient use of time for all those involved. 3. Many parents (especially new ones) may feel more comfortable talking to one parent rather than a large group. This change is not meant to exclude, but rather to include, those who cannot make it to the meetings (it is impossible to set a time, day, and place that is convenient for every parent to attend) and also those who are not inclined to speak up in a group. The Parent Representatives for each level are: · Level 4 ~Beth Grant · Level 5 ~Debbie Crook · Level 6 ~Lynda Reinard · Level 7 ~Diane King · Level 8 ~Kellie & Sue Day Our Team has always been the most dignified and professional Team at the meets we attend. This is an excellent opportunity for our Parent Organization to do the same. Make sure you check our website often as we keep it up to date as needed at: www.Angelfire.com/pa5/bkvlgymf As always, Kellie is always there for your coaching questions and concerns. Sincerely, Kellie, Sue, Sharon, Melorra, and Jackie ~The reason that this is being done, is that the only things to discuss right now are fundraising and to wrap up everything by the time Kellie is done. Check the WEBSITE!! Meeting Adjourned. December 20, 2006: The regularly scheduled monthly meeting to be held on Dec. 20 will be our Parents Christmas Party!
