Sunday:
5:00 Depart from HMS PLEASE EAT DINNER BEFORE WE LEAVE; SNACKS WILL BE PROVIDED LATER IN THE EVENING, BUT YOU SHOULD EAT DINNER BEFORE LEAVING HUNTINGTON
7:30-8:00: Check into Hotel. (Comfort Suites Mineral Wells 304-489-9600)
Boys should enter hotel in an orderly manner and sit quietly. I don't need 30 people causing confusion while I'm getting us checked in to our rooms. Thank you!
HOTEL BEHAVIOR: YOU ARE GUESTS! OTHER PEOPLE ARE ALSO STAYING IN THIS HOTEL. BE ON YOUR BEST BEHAVIOR. NO RUNNING IN THE HALLWAYS, NO SCREAMING AND/OR YELLING IN YOUR ROOMS OR IN THE HALLWAYS, NO HORSEPLAY IN THE ROOMS, NO JUMPING ON FURNITURE, ETC. DO NOT LET MRS. WILLIAMS OR ANY OF THE COACHES GET A NEGATIVE REPORT ABOUT YOUR BEHAVIOR!
Room Assignments: No whining about who you are rooming with, please. You are just in that room to sleep; you can hang out with whomever you want until time to sleep. I will post room assignments later. If there is some HUGE personality conflict, talk to me privately and I'll do what I can to help.
Wrestlers need to put their belongings in their rooms and then help Mrs. Williams unload her van (coolers, food, drinks, etc.). As soon as possible, wrestlers then need to report to Coach Ray's room for weigh-ins.
8:00-9:00: Several chaperones will report to the pool area so wrestlers can swim. There is an exercise room as well that you may use. Pool area and exercise room are to be used ONLY when chaperones are present. You are NEVER to be in either area without an adult present!!!
POOL BEHAVIOR: WE ARE NOT THE ONLY GUEST WHO WILL BE USING THE POOL. MANY TIMES WE SHARE THIS AREA WITH FAMILIES AND SMALL CHILDREN. YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL AND POLITE IF THERE ARE SMALL CHILDREN PRESENT. FOUL LANGUAGE, HORSEPLAY ARE NEVER APPROPRIATE NO MATTER WHO IS PRESENT.
9:00-11:00: You may play video games, watch movies or tv, hang out or just socialize with friends in rooms. Mr. Williams will have apples, granola bars, etc. as snacks in his room during this time. Come get something to eat, but be aware of your weight. Official weigh ins are tomorrow! During this time, Mrs. Williams will also ask for your lunch orders for tomorrow's lunch.
11:00: Report to your assigned rooms and STAY THERE. No wrestler is allowed back out in the hallways after 11:00 p.m. unless you have an adult with you or are coming to one of the coach's rooms. "LIGHTS OUT" WILL BE DETERMINED BY OUR ADULT CHAPERONE OR MIDNIGHT WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. ADULT CHAPERONES HAVE THE FINAL SAY. This means if your chaperone wants lights out at 11:30, that's what time you go to bed.
Monday:
6:30 A.M.: Wake up and get ready. I would suggest that you DON'T EAT BREAKFAST. We have poptarts and granola bars for after weigh-ins.
7:30 A.M.: Leave for weigh-ins. (Blennerhassett Middle School; not sure of the exact times)
ADULTS: I AM COUNTING ON YOU TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A HEAD COUNT FOR ALL THE KIDS IN YOUR ROOM!!! PLEASE CHECK TO SEE THAT EACH KID HAS THEIR SHOES, HEADGEAR, SINGLET, WARM-UP AND BAG. THANK YOU. ADULTS: IT'S NICE IF KIDS RIDE IN THE SAME CARS EACH TIME WE GO SOMEWHERE. THAT WAY WE'LL MAKE SURE WE ALWAYS HAVE ALL THE KIDS!!!
9:30 Wrestling begins!
We will have coolers with your lunches and drinks. Please make sure you clean up any mess you and/or your teammates make.
When we are finished wrestling, we will return to the hotel, get showered, and changed; and then spend quiet time in the rooms. You may visit with friends,but you are not allowed at the pool area at this time. It is QUIET TIME...REST AND BE QUIET! NOTE: EVERYONE MUST SHOWER!!!
We will be having a pizza party in the dining area of the hotel, but I won't know exactly what time until we have finished wrestling. Please be in the lobby on time for the party.
MALL TRIP: Our departure time will depend on when we finish wrestling, but typically we leave for the mall immediately after eating pizza. We will stay at the mall anywhere from 1-2 hours. I'll let you know when we get there what time I want you back at the Food Court. You may hang out with your friends, go where you like, etc. HOWEVER, AND ADULT CHAPERONE WILL ALWAYS BE NEARBY.
Adults: This is free time for the kids, but I need you to pick a group of kids to be "near" or to travel with in the mall. You don't have to be right by their sides, you don't have to direct them where to do or what to do, you just have to be in the vicinity observing. Typically, we all meet at the Food Court and groups of kids attach themselves to a couple of adults and they travel around together monitoring. We are obligated to make sure our kids are safe, and the mall should feel that are children are supervised guests and not wild animals let loose. Please help me in that endeavor. Thank you!
Returning from the Mall: What we do after we return to the mall depends on our times. Typically, kids are able to swim or hang out with friends until 11:00 p.m.
11:00 p.m.: Report to your assigned rooms and STAY THERE. No wrestler is allowed back out in the hallways after 11:00 p.m. unless you have an adult with you or are coming to one of the coach's rooms. "LIGHTS OUT" WILL BE DETERMINED BY OUR ADULT CHAPERONE OR MIDNIGHT WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. ADULT CHAPERONES HAVE THE FINAL SAY. This means if your chaperone wants lights out at 11:30, that's what time you go to bed.
Tuesday:
Our second day of wrestling depends on whether or not we're wrestling in the morning or evening pool. I will let everyone know the schedule for the day before bedtime Monday.
If we are in the morning pool, we will get up, eat breakfast, and leave following the same schedule as on Monday.
ADULTS: I NEED YOUR HELP IN MAKING SURE YOUR ROOMS ARE EMPTY AND AS TIDY AS POSSIBLE. PLEASE DO AN INSPECTION, LOOK UNDER BEDS, BEHIND DOORS, ETC. THANK YOU!!!
We typically finish wrestling by the afternoon. We leave and go to Ryans for a late lunch and then return to Huntington.
If we are in the afternoon pool, we can sleep in a little later, eat breakfast, and go to the middle school and wait to wrestle. When we finish we go to Ryans for dinner and then return to Huntington.
I'm looking forward to a GREAT TRIP!!!
MRS. WILLIAMS
