Dear Team Iowa members,
Our computers/emails are back up and running again (I hope). I have several things to talk about today.
(1) PJ Wyatt – Many of you on this list know PJ. He has been an avid basketball player on our team for the past couple of Games. PJ lives in Cedar Rapids and is a schoolteacher. Recently, his kidney failed. On Monday, February 25, 2008 he received a new kidney at the U of I. If anybody would like to send him a card, he is staying at his mom’s at 514 – 15th Avenue N., Clinton, IA 52732. His mother has asked all of us to say a prayer for the donor family and their loss. From the whole team – “PJ, we wish you a speedy recovery and hope to see you at the 2010 Games on the Basketball court.”
(2) Survey Monkey. If you are getting this email from me, you should have received a message from Shelley Knepper to complete a survey via survey monkey. The first question on this survey is “do you plan to attend the 2008 U. S. Transplant Games.” You need to answer “yes” or “no.” If you answer “no,” that is the end of your survey. If you answer “yes”, you need to complete the rest of the survey – letting us know your travel plans, # people coming with you to the Games, team sports you wish to participate in, uniform sizes, etc. WE NEED EVERYBODY TO ANSWER THIS SURVEY BY NEXT WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12th.
We are trying to finalize plans for the bus, the hospitality suite, an opening party and a closing party for the team, uniforms, team sports, whether or not we need to try to add more rooms to our hotel block, etc. We can’t make plans that include you in our count if we don’t hear from you.
Beginning Monday, March 17th, we will only communicate with the people who are planning to go to the Games. If you want to continue to receive important updates, you must answer the survey and let us know your intentions.
(3) HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
(4) GO TEAM IOWA!
