Party

That was a great party yesterday!!! We will all miss the Brooks at workouts and team gatherings...but they will play with us on occasions.

The reports the club players researched, typed and read was great!! I learned some new things.

We gave our new players a special small little water polo ball: Eric, Estelle, Hannah, Lake, Serigo, Molly, Jessica, Omar, Sarah, Maci, Mia and Ben.

All the club and Masters were presented with a Water Polo Key Chain. Special Awards were given to our Team Captains: Jake and Eleanor. Other Special Awards were giving to: Rob Wills - Rob is not only our awesome goalie and improves with each workout, he motivates other players, supports our team with outside functions: Rob is in charge of our Marathon Fund Raiser, he applies for grants whenever they come our way. Thank You Rob!!!

Dave Thorson: Dave is our silent all around good guy!! Dave has improved so much this past year, I have loved all his questions about the game.. Dave takes the answers and puts it to work in the water. Dave also is our host when we play in the UofA tournament.

Shannon the Cannon was not present - so she is reading that she won this award. Shannon too has improved so much this past year - the last few months Shannon has really shown her stuff!! I think everyone is so proud of Shannon and what she has done for herself in and out of the water. Also I have made Shannon our official time keeper!!

Lee another master player who has come a long way!! Lee is a real fighter, all the guys pick her up out of the water and sometimes toss her but she comes back with a smile and let's them have it again. Good job Lee.

Gabby has a school graduation dance and could not make the party. If Gabby continues her hard work and dedication she is going to be one heck of a player!! Gab has got the size, when her mind grows into to her body watch out.

Zach is our Tackle Football/Water Polo Player (he sprained his arm playing around in PE) Zach has also worked hard, his swimming speed has really helped his game. Zach can play all positions and all position well... The trait that has help Zach game is his attendance and his willing to stay with the task at hand.

The slide show Louie Chanove made for the Brooks capped the night off - full of pictures our the club from the Fallbrook tournament, Commerce, Bowling, other parties - seeing how much everyone has changed was something special the Brooks can take with them to California.

The kids loved it when Tony got in the water - think I saw a few paybacks. It was fun watching all the kids having so much fun in the water, watching the slide show. A great evening of fun and memories!!

Brooks We will miss you all!!!

We all really appreciate what everyone did to make this a great going away party. Leaving you guys was by far the most difficult part of this move for us. We will relish the chance to play with TVH any time in the future, just let us know. Take care everyone, I am sure our paths will cross many times again.
