Homeschool High School Baseball

Attention high school age baseball players. There will be a homeschool high school baseball team this Spring for young men, ages 14-18. This is a program for experienced baseball players - not for beginners. We are attempting to schedule games against public school JV teams, smaller Christian schools and other homeschool teams (if any can be located). We presently have 11 players on our roster and have room for a few more. The team will be based out of the Crete-Monee area. Indoor practices will begin in February at the Diamond Sports Academy in Mokena (2xs per week). Once the weather breaks, the team will practice 3-4 times per week.

The team will be coached by Brian DeCook, Larry Skrobot and Don Gordon. If you are interested, please contact Mr. DeCook at 708.259.4558 or bdecook@fca.org

Homeschool Skating Program

My name is Christy Wronkowicz and I am the new skating director at Midwest Training and Ice Center in Dyer, Indiana. I am very interested in starting a homeschool program here at the rink, as we had a well attended homeschool program at some of the rinks I taught prior to here. (christinask8er08@yahoo.com) or via phone at 219-558-8811, I would love to discuss this program more with you.

This special daytime ice skating class is designed to enhance the curriculum of homeschoolers ages 6+. Classes take place during our mid-day public skate and include a 45 minute lesson and 45 minutes of practice time. Lessons will be grouped by age/skill level and will focus on fundamentals of learning how to ice skate (physical fitness) supplemented with learning that extends outside the traditional classroom (basic laws of physics, movement, rhythm, and music). This exploration of learning uses the human body as the subject and ice as the medium.

Skiing discounts at Wilmot

Pattie KelleyHuff <pattiekelleyhuff@yahoo.com>

Dear Friends,

The rates are about half price the cost of a regular lift ticket price. Considering that rental of equipment is very cheap and a free lesson is included, if you request one in advance, this is a great deal. Wilmot makes its' own snow so they are open most days even if we don't have snow in our yards!

I am please to be coordinating both the Tuesday morning group and the late afternoon/evening group on Wednesdays (rather than Tuesdays previously) this year. When I made the reservation for the ski season, I did request that we be able to pay individually as we check in at the ski school desk. That means we do not need to arrive as a group and pay all at one time which wasted a lot of time and was a hassle.

I also made the earlybird reservation deadline which means during one of our skiing days, our group will receive free pizza, amount determined by the number attending that day. I am still awaiting details on that and will let you know more about that.

In order for this work, though, I need to be able to RSVP to Wilmot the day before with accurate numbers of who is attending and what kind of equipment will be rented. If you RSVP and we end up with too few people, I will email those who RSVP'd back and let you know. Conversely, if I don't reach our minimum number of RSVP's for the group discount, I will cancel for the day and anyone who shows up will be charged their regular rates. I have selected two dates to begin with and will plan to offer both times on a weekly basis, assuming we meet our minimum number each week.

Huff/Homeschool Ski Days:
Tuesday, December 2 – 10:00 AM – 4:30 PM - RVSP date to Pattie – Mon by 9 AM
Wednesday, December 3 - 3:30-11:00 PM - RSVP date to Pattie – Tues by 5 PM

When you RSVP, I need to know:

* # of lift tickets you will need (you can bring friends or other
non-homeschooled family however, whoever buys the lift tickets
must show the ID I will email to you – I'm working on a file you can just upload at your convenience)
* # of lessons you would like, one per lift ticket and specify either ski or snowboard
* # of rentals - specify ski or snowboard

Rates are as follows:
Lift/lesson $15
Lift/ski rental*/lesson $20
Lift/snowboard rental*/lesson $30
NOTE: Children under 7 ski free! Rentals and lessons are regular rates.

When you arrive at the ski hill, you will go to the desk at the SKI SCHOOL (not the lift ticket window) to purchase your lift tickets and get rental paperwork, as well as tickets for any lessons you requested in advance. They will ask to see the ID card (count on that) and collect your money, i.e. cash or credit card.
