The RCC is once again seeking funds and volunteers to provide breakfast to the RHS Football Team on Saturday mornings before the team's Saturday afternoon games. This tradition was started by former Principal Terry Houston as part of the school's turn-around effort, and is much appreciated by the team.
The RHS Football Team has five Saturday afternoon games scheduled this year - first game is Saturday, August 25th.
So far, we have commitments from three churches to provide volunteers for the 2012 breakfasts --- two more dates are open right now:
Ten to twelve volunteers are needed for each breakfast. Volunteers should expect to arrive at about 8:45 am and should be finished by 10:15 am or thereabouts. The volunteers help the caterer bring the food and equipment into the school building, set up for the breakfast, help serve the food to the team and coaches, clean up after the meal, and help the caterer move items back to his vehicle.
Our caterer this year will be Euylan Welch of WelchOne Catering, the same caterer as last year.
If you would like to donate funds to support the breakfasts, volunteer, or have questions, please contact: Norah Ryan, 314-241-9994 (daytime #) or email norah.ryan@att.net. Donations to support the breakfasts are tax deductible as a charitable donation and should be made payable to the SLPS Foundation. Contact Norah for more information and a mailing address for the Foundation.
Here are some photos from the Fall 2011 Football Breakfasts:

We appreciate all of the support we have received for this project in the past, and would love to have your support, either financial or as a volunteer, this year !!!!
