CHRIST CHURCH EPISCOPAL SCHOOL BOOSTER CLUB Dear Cavalier Fans, When I walk the grounds at <strong>CCES</strong> I am amazed. My perspective of walking off the field, court, and diamond as a <strong>CCES</strong> senior in 1980 and seeing where we are today, as a parent, is truly amazing. It has not been by accident, rather thoughtful planning and tireless dedication to the pursuit of excellence by many. Booster club members have always been leaders at <strong>CCES</strong>. Athletics were, are, and will continue to be a venue for learning life lessons in addition to playing the game. We can easily see the tangible signs of our booster club in action over the past 10 years. Scoreboards, lights, track, tennis courts, training rooms, equipment, scoreboards, and trophy corridors quickly come to mind. The Booster Club has been proud to partner with the entire cavalier community to make our school a better place. This will be a historic year for <strong>CCES</strong> Athletics as we transition to 2A for the 1st time in school history. New conferences, new rivals, and different facility challenges will define our new path. What makes us uniquely prepared for this transition is our history and culture of an entire <strong>CCES</strong> community providing student athletes with the resources for sustained achievement in sports, classrooms, and life. While our tangible facilities showcase our abilities it is the intangible…… the people that truly set us apart. Our coaches, teachers, administrators, and entire athletic staff define our culture. We are truly blessed. While the Booster Club has many tangible facility upgrades on the horizon, this year we will fund and develop the “Cavalier Leadership Institute.” An investment in people! Approximately 80% of US students participate in a sport. Our Institute will focus on developing leadership, mental toughness, unity, and teamwork. This may be the most exciting and rewarding project done with long lasting impact. We will partner with Dr. Milt Lowder who has helped build similar programs on the college level. It should positively impact athletics, the school, and most importantly is designed to impact lives. Thank you to all of the businesses, individuals, parents, friends, and alumni. Your support allows us the resources for continued excellence for our student athletes. A special thanks to those serving the booster club board who are tireless workers and leaders that make a difference. To our student athletes: WIN OR LOSE……. WE LOVE TO WATCH YOU PLAY! We appreciate the desire, passion, teamwork, and effort in all you do. These are the attributes that will carry you in life. We look forward to another great year and thank you for your support. See you at the game!
