(If there is an issue the morning of a meet - such as weather - it's easier for me to text everyone rather than calling them.  If you would rather not give me this number - or if you don't have a cell phone - that's fine.  I will call the home phone.)


PARENT/GUARDIAN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I have read and understand the expectations found in the ROHS Speech Handbook.
