As I attended the Norwood Varsity girls Softball game today(3-24-2011) I noticed something unique but odd. I noticed the girls from Roger Bacon did not have uniforms. This is what they were wearing. Some had on sweat pants. The pants were all different colors. Some were gray, black, and beige. The jersy's were all different types and colors. Some of RB girls wore short sleeves, long sleeves, mismatch jackets. Only one girl had a number on the back of her shirt. Another girl had letters missing from the name on the back of her shirt that was turned inside out. I must say it was different from what I was use to seeing. These girls did not have a care in the world as to what they looked like. But man o man could they play. They put the smack down on our clean, well groomed, organized, well fitted matching uniform girls.
Keeping up with the cost of things is what Norwood District tries to do. Every year they have to buy new cheerleading uniforms as the Athletic Director explained to me. Every year they have to go to the same catalog company for their purchases. Every year its the same thing with the only exception being the price, it usually has gone up. When does the year come that it STOPS!
I hope this year is the year we send the message stop the unnecessary spending. I hope voting No on this levy will finally send the message we are tired of paying for things, when we can make do on what we already have. As we say in the hood,"make it do what it do". Yes, we were the best dressed out on the field. Our girls looked sharp in their new shirts, new socks, and matching uniforms. The only problem I have with this is .............BY US TRYING TO KEEP UP ..........IT IS REALLY GETTING US DOWN.
