The June 21, 2010 Points Tracker spreadsheet is available and can regularly be found on the PARENTS page on the left side menu.

Please check your points carefully and contact the Food Tent  and/or Event Coordinator if you have a question about your points.  

Point Tracker Basics:

1) Sign in when you volunteer and/or keep a track of how many hours you worked. Some positions are already assigned points. Most other jobs are 1 point/hour. Please contact the Event Coordinator if you have a question regarding your points.

2) Please let the Food Tent coordinator know how much you spent on the food you donate to the regattas. Do not send your points to the Point Tracker. The points will not be recorded unless sent by the event coordinator. You get 1 point per $10 value of donations.

NOTE: You do not need to submit a receipt UNLESS you would prefer to be reimbursed for your donations. The Food Tent Coordinator will collect the receipts and submit to the treasurer, Liz Gustafson. You do not receive points for reimbursed costs.

3) If you are a coordinator of any event or activity, you are responsible for recording points and submitting them to the Point Tracker. Please submit points ASAP after an event/activity has occurred. The Points Tracker is updated regularly and any discrepancy can be quickly addressed.

4) Questions about the points should go to the coordinators.

The 2009-10 VHSL Physical form can be found here.  Please note that State and County rules indicate that a current physical needs to be on file at YHS before a student can participate in Crew. This includes Winter Conditioning which starts in early November.

Short on points? If so, buy some Joe's Dollars. For each Joe's Dollar certificate you buy, you earn one point. Each certificate is $10 and is redeemable at Joe's (dine in or carry out) for $10 off any large or x-large pizza or $10 off an order valued at $20 or more. This coupon cannot be combined with any other Joe's special. The crew team keeps half the money, so it is a great fundraiser for the team, helps you meet your points total, and makes your family members happy as they head off to Joe's this summer. If interested, please contact Mary Vihstadt at mvihstadt@aol.com or 703.237.6734 to let her know how many certificates you would like.
