We're Back! Giving Opportunities to Athletes who Love Soccer.


We're Back!!

Greetings GOALS team members and families,

We here at the Pieters Family Life Center and the Rochester Rhinos hope you had a great mid-summer break full of family fun. We have an action packed August for you to finish off the 2011 GOALS season.

This month we have four GOALS activities scheduled for you:

August 10th: regular GOALS night
August 13th: GOALS night at Sahlens Stadium, Rochester Rhinos vs. Pittsburgh Riverhounds (please see additional information below)
August 24th: regular GOALS night
August 31st: GOALS end of season banquet at the Pieters Family Life Center
If you have any questions about any of these dates or activities please feel free to email us at info@pietersfamilylifecenter.org.


GOALS night Wednesday, August 10th
We welcome everyone back for another night of soccer fun with your GOALS teammates and players from the Rochester Rhinos. We welcome back the girls from the Brighton Stormers Thunder travel soccer team who will again volunteer with us.
An important note about Wednesday: The Rochester Rhinos are holding tryouts for their elite youth travel team. The tryouts have the field until 6pm. There will be a slight moment of transition between the tryouts and GOALS. We welcome your assistance in setting up the field so we may start on time.

GOALS night Saturday, August 13th
The Rochester Rhinos game vs. the Pittsburgh Riverhounds on Saturday, August 13th is a very special night for the Giving Opportunities to Athletes who Love Soccer team! GOALS will be formally recognized by the Rochester Rhinos during this game. All GOALS players and family members will:
- Be on the field for pre-game warm-ups
- Escort the Rochester Rhinos onto the field as part of a "GOALS parade"
- Be at midfield with the Rhinos during the singing of the national anthem
- Be a part of a team picture with the Rochester Rhinos after the national anthem.
- Represent Giving Opportunities to Athletes who Love Soccer by cheering on the Rochester Rhinos as they take on the Pittsburgh Riverhounds.

The Pieters Family Life Center has obtained 60 tickets for this game and will distribute them on Wednesday night to families who are able to attend. If you have a Pro Pass, we ask you to use it for the game so we may allocate tickets to families who do not have Pro Passes. We encourage all families who are able to attend this game to please do so. Be sure to wear your jerseys! Detailed information and instructions will be handed out on Wednesday.

End of the Year GOALS Banquet on Wednesday, August 31st
To celebrate the end of a great season, we invite all of you to the Giving Opportunities to Athletes who Love Soccer end of the year banquet at the Pieters Family Life Center. This banquet will be an opportunity to finish off your GOALS season with the friends you made over the course of the summer.
The banquet will be held from 6 to 8pm at the Pieters Family Life Center and will include a meal, awards, and some special surprises. We hope all of you will be able to attend! Please take a moment to sign the banquet RSVP sign in on August 10th or August 24th. More information will be provided in person on GOALS night.

Rex says, "See you Wednesday!"
