Rewards 365 Fundraiser for Athletes

Rewards365_Logo-300x121

George Ranch High School, Reading Jr. High School and Polly Ryon Middle School have partnered with Simply Rewards national fundraising company to do a maroon track fundraising campaign during the month of September. This program is designed to raise immediate funds through a 4- week fundraiser called Rewards 365. All Longhorn Nation students are asked to download the Rewards 365 mobile app, create an account using their assigned Group ID number, and then input email addresses of family, friends, and co-workers. If they did not receive one, use Athletics ID#RW1233X2328.

Emails are then sent to your contacts with a personalized request from your child, requesting a donation to the athletics program. Each donor also receives a membership to the Longhorn Nation Rewards website, as well as, $50 added to their Rewards travel account.

Each student has a goal of 30 email addresses to input and can share their donation request via text and social media. Even though this is a campus-wide fundraiser, the athletics department will directly benefit from this program. Please support your student by making sure they have joined a group and by helping them with collecting email addresses. Thank you for your support.

cross_country_oval_sticker

The boys’ Cross Country team qualified for the state meet this Saturday by placing 3rd at regionals. The team was lead by Alec Waldschmidt placing 3rd with a school record of 16:02. Following closely behind was Julian Marrufo at 15th, Jacob Triesch at 16th, Jacob Nava at 20th, Tyler Wandling at 22nd, Wilson Hinz at 50th and Hunter Breeze at 69th.

The girls’ Varsity cross country season came to an end this past weekend as they competed at the 2014 Region III Cross Country Championships in Humble. The ladies placed 11th out of 24 teams, placing 3 spots better than the 2013 season, which is the best overall place the team has had since GRHS opened its doors. The Longhorns had the best placement of District 24-5A with Lamar placing 18th, and Calhoun placing 16th. Out of 172 competitors, freshman Theresa McComisky ran in veteran fashion placing 21st, running a 2nd best season and overall time of 19:47. Junior Alexis Aikens blazed to another personal and season best as well placing 39th, and junior Parker McCarley finished 65th and made major moves this season running a personal best time of 21:23. Senior Elizabeth Hinz finished her senior season also running a personal best time of 21:26 and placing 67th overall, and to round out the team score, freshman Jasmine Frechel also ran a personal best time of 22:00 and placed 87th. Sydney Heikkila and Grayson Thomas finished at 89th and 98th place, respectively. This closes another record setting season for the Lady Longhorns XC team, and none of this would have been possible without the determination and hard work of each individual member of the team. As always, we would like to thank the students, faculty/staff and parents for their continuous support throughout the season.
