Yearbook Pictures

 Yearbook pictures will be taken on Saturday morning  March 2nd - by Keyser Photography.

8:15 am - All Varsity players report in white uniform (including cleats) with your equipment. Both individual photos and a yearbook photo will be taken for varsity. 

9:15 am - All other teams report in uniform with your equipment. Team photos will be taken immediately after the SnapRaise video. There will not be any individual photos for non-varsity teams. 

Sunday March 3 - Late Afternoon

Varsity will meet for a team hero shot. Team Captains will communicate location to players and clothing/uniform plan directly to the players. Each varsity player should also bring baseball equipment (glove, bat & catcher gear) and Letter Jacket if they have one. 

Snap-Raise Fundraiser

At 9:00 am all players from all levels will be participating in making a Snap-Raise video and each player will make an individual page for fundraising. If you haven't seen a Snap-Raise fundraiser before, it is an online fundraising platform - you can watch this brief video to get an idea of how it works https://youtu.be/I4iVPNkQMts.

To maximize the percentage we receive in the fundraiser we must have full participation from all players. Full participation is defined as all rostered players sending out their page to 20 email addresses. Please help your player make this list of friends and family email addresses in a note on their phone so they can come prepared to paste the addresses into their personal Snap! page. 

Scrimmage

Currently a Varsity scrimmage is planned at about 10:30 am. All Varsity players and several other designated JV players will participate in an inter-squad scrimmage.

Field Clean Up

Beginning at 8:15am there will be Diamond Club members at the field to begin our annual workday. We would love to have as many parents as possible. Bring your work gloves, yard tools, paint brushes and willingness to pitch in. Send a message to chaparralhsbaseball@gmail.com if you have questions about what to bring. 

Snack-Shack Training

At 9:30am on March 2nd there will be a short training session for anyone who is new to being a Snack Shack volunteer or anyone interested in a refresher. All families are expected to volunteer for at least one shift during home games.
