NGPO Seasonal Kickoff Party

Come Join Us at NGC for a fun event!

Dear Parents,

This December may be the busiest yet so we decided to hold a season kickoff party instead of our annual holiday party. NGPO will be serving lunch from Draft Picks. Girls will get their gym sisters and a special gift from NGPO. Party is ONLY for Levels Xcel, 3-10 athletes. If your family is not a member of NGPO it will be $20 to attend the party. Please pay by check or Zelle to presidentofngpo@gmail.com by December 20th. 

Time to celebrate the stars of NGC!

Coaches Gifts are Due

Dear NGPO Parents,

It’s that time of year when we are all getting busy and overwhelmed! In talking with a handful of you it seems like there is interest in collecting money for gifts for the coaches this holiday season.

We all know that for many the holidays look different this year but we want to make sure we don’t forget our wonderful coaches! We have 5 coaches (Shannon, Brittany, Haley, Destiny & KJ) along with Coach Carter that we would love to give a small gift. With that said if you would like to contribute to the gift we are asking that you either Venmo @Brook-BuchunasFaulstich or Zelle brookfaulstich@yahoo.com. Another alternative would be to drop a check or cash into the NGPO box at the front of the gym. Please address the checks directly to Brook Faulstich. If you are dropping off cash in the NGPO box put on the front of the envelope Brook Faulstich. We are asking that all contributions are given by December 20th so we have time to put together the gifts for the coaches. We will let you all know what we purchased for the coaches in a future email.

We think this will be a wonderful way to show our coaches how much we appreciate them and also allows them to treat themselves to something nice over the holiday break. Participation is of course optional, but we’d love to have as much support as possible. Some may ask can I just do my own gift by myself or with my level. We are really trying to be a united front as a team and present a team gift to our coaches.

Whenever we receive a donation we will send you a confirmation email/text. Again the deadline is December 20th. Level Reps as well as myself will send out a few reminders as the deadline gets closer because I know things get extremely busy this time of year.

If you have any questions my contact info is below:

brookfaulstich@yahoo.com or 630-235-8320

Happy Holidays!

Brook Faulstich, Sam Lindenmeyer & Matt Kitzmiller
