Athletic Association
President: Craig Wedbush, craigwed@hotmail.com p. 314.503.5091
Members monitor parish-wide athletic activities and gym usage, ensuring that all coaching and outfitting needs are met. The committee also sponsors fund-raisers throughout the year.
The Athletic Association of Our Lady of Lourdes was created in order that the youth of our parish may be given the best opportunity for well organized, programmed, equipped and supervised athletics and recreation. Officers, committee heads, coaches and managers should see through the uniform to the soul of the child, realizing that such a program is ultimately for the purpose of training the character of youth and helping them to grow in union with Christ. Through this program, youth learn respect for authority, team play, and fairness in play, so as to carry these with them into later life.
Specifically, the purposes of the organization are:
In order to make all activities run properly, we need the support of our parents. They can volunteer as coach, assistant coach or business manager. Also, all parents must sign up for a class activity on book day. Kindergarten through second grade will work the Fish Fry in March. Third through fifth grade will sign up for the Back to School Barbecue and the Beer and Grill booth at the Carnival will be staffed by sixth through eighth grade parents.
