[homeschoolhub] Soccer Putty, Mon. 11/26, 3-5 p.m.

 

Last week, against all odds, we had a balmy day (no ski masks neccessary!) and a great group of really competitive players. There was passing, there was running, and there was shooting! Even little A showed up!

The best part was when one team worked just a bit harder than the other and the extra effort paid off. It's great to stretch outselves, to run a bit more than expected, to concentrate a bit more, and to find a new move or a new tactic that works.

Now, with Thanksgiving behind us and Christmas ahead, let us go again! Whatever changes we undergo, expect improvement! Strive for it!

Everyone is welcome without regard to skill, age or level of fitness. Everyone will be treated well.

Monday, November 26, 2012, from 3-5 p.m. at Howard Park at the corner of St. Louis Blvd. and Jefferson Blvd. in South Bend.

[homeschoolhub] Soccer in Disguise, Mon. 11/19, 3-5 p.m.

 

Last week we faced a 20% chance of snow or freezing rain. We ended up with a cool, dry, partly cloudy day and an extremely competitive game.

One player showed up in shorts a ski mask. Go figure!

Today should be slightly warmer, but who knows? Ya gotta be there!

[homeschoolhub] Soccer on Ice! Mon. 11/12, 3-5 p.m.

 

Last week I wondered whether we could have another great game with our regulars, and whether we might be joined by a brand new player -
bursting with youthful potential, and ready to learn a little in a supportive environment. Well.. . we had a great game with our regulars and two new players!

How about this week? We may have a little snow on the ground. We will have cold temperatures. Will that stop us? Will I break down and wear my long pants? I don't think so. I may be wearing a ski mask and and three sweaters, but expect to see the same knees you've come to expect every Monday afternoon.

[homeschoolhub] Time Travel for Tots?

 

Homeschoolers,

What do y'all have planned for next Saturday, November 17, between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m.?  Is it novel?  Is it educational?  Is it fun for the whole family?

My daughters, Blake and Veronica, are members of the Society for Creative Anachronism, an international organization dedicated to researching and recreating the arts and skills of pre-17th-century Europe.  Members dress in the clothing of Medieval and Renaissance, and attend events which feature tournaments, royal courts, feasts, dancing, various classes and workshops and more.  Blake likes making her own armor and competing in the "heavy fighting" tourneys.  Veronica prefers wearing her renaissance dresses and singing period music. 

I've been letting my beard grow out of control for more than 8 months because Blake asked me to play "Medieval St. Nicholas" this Saturday for a Toys-for-Tots fundraiser entitled "the St. Nicholas Tourney for Tots."

            St. Nicholas Tourney for Tots

            November 17, 2012:     9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

            Central Christian Church

            418 W. Franklin St.

            Elkhart, IN  46516

[homeschoolhub] Soccer & Fawkes, Mon., 11/5, 3-5 p.m.

 

Last week's cool, dry game was indeed cool and dry. It was also vigorous and competitive. Our regulars (including our newest regulars (J, B & C) worked plenty hard for 2 hours. That's exercise! That's competition! That's fun!

Can we do it again? Will we be joined by one or more of our semi-regulars? How about a brand new player - bursting with youthful potential, and ready to learn a little in a supportive environment?

Come and see! (If you can't make it, no worries. I'll tell you all about it next Sunday.)

Everyone is welcome without regard to skill, age or level of fitness. Everyone will be treated well.
