Last night was the Cross County Banquet, it was really great. Our school, Foster, is so different from Bountiful. It is estimated that there are over 30 languages spoken!! Really.
Anyway, last night was to honor the students on the CC team. Catherine was on the Varsity team and was able to letter!! Then the coach gave out a few special awards and Cat earned one of those too, Most Inspirational!!!
The coach is amazing, he was able to talk individually about each and every team member, it really came from the heart. He made them each remember why they chose CC and what they did for the team, he did not do any reaching or filling time. It truly was heartfelt, inspiring and team building.
After the coach gave out the awards, all the students that were not graduating got up and talked to the Seniors, thanking them on the example they had been to them. After that the Seniors all got up and tearfully thanked the coach for all he had done for them, individually. WOW it was great! Big boys do cry! :)
This is new to us as parents, our girls have never gotten this into any sport before, at school. Brad and I were just very impressed.
Pictures to come...
A week ago I was still pregnant with my baby girl, liz and Burke were
still waiting for the "Thundercats are go!" text message, and everybody
was happy....
