Spring Sports at Jimtown will soon be taking off. Once we get going, the spring season is full of games almost every night of the week for the month of April and May. In addition, spring storms and other weather makes it a challenge with cancellations, postponements and rescheduling of events. Communication with student-athletes and parents is key.

If you have not seen it yet, our new athletic department website will be a HUGE tool for us to use in this regard. There will be articles, live schedules, photo galleries and other things that will be updated all season long in all sports. The articles also get published to our associated Jimtown Athletics Facebook and Twitter accounts. It is a great way to stay in touch with what is going on in the world of Jimtown Athletics.

There is also a brilliant, built in tool called "Web Alerts" that you as a parent can sign up for. Web Alerts allows you to subscribe by putting in an email address or cell phone that you would like to be alerted with in the event that a schedule changes, there is a rain-out, or any other information that you need to know about quickly with regards to your son or daughter's teams. The great thing is that you can subscribe to ONLY the team or level that affects your kids. In other words, there will be no information to sort though to see if the cancellation applies to your son or daughter's team. If your son or daughter is in (for example) JV Baseball, you would only see information coming to you regarding changes in the JV Baseball Schedule.

Check it out and get signed up by going to www.jimtownathletics.org and click on the text that says "Sign up to Receive Team Alerts via email or Text"...which is about 1/3rd of the way down the page. It's easy, quick and you will always be in the "know" this spring should there be schedule changes or anything like that.
