Welcome to all

Well, Mrs. Brackett recommended using Yahoo groups, but unfortunately it is blocked by the Springfield Public Schools firewall, so I'm coming back to this. I started it last year, when I was super excited about using blogs, but unfortunately time killed me and it. So, it begins anew today.

If you're unfamiliar with using a blog, they're really simple. Once I invite you to become a member, you simply accept. If you don't have a Google account, then you will have to set one up, but it's simple too. After setting up your Google account, you can become a full member of the blog, which gives you access to posting and commenting. If you want to post, simply hit the button "New Post" in the upper right hand corner (when logged in). Type what you need to, like in an email, and hit "Publish Post." It's that simple. If you want to comment to something that's been written, click on the word "Comments" below the post, and it will allow you to write a comment, and "Publish your comment."

This will hopefully save us all some time and energy, and make things a bit more convenient. Instead of having to make phone calls when practice or games are changed, I'll post it to the blog for you to see, and announce it on the announcements for the players to hear. Hopefully that will be easier for all parties involved. Also, feel free to email me at tmmaerke@spsmail.org (remember, there is two m's there) if you have questions or concerns.
