Get out and recruit players, tell a friend or buddy about the team. Don't be afraid to ask every BIG S.O.B. you run into about playing football. You never know who's interested!
We need players especially OL, tell them the team has gear for them(I have 5-6 Sets of gear XL).

Hey David
Placing posters in local gyms is an effective tool. A second way to boost recruiting is making up business cards. It's great knowing you can handout a card with all the necessary info about the team.
We need a plan of how we are going to recruit players in Anacortes, LaConner, Oak Harbor, Coupeville, Concrete, Sedro Woolley, and Burlington. Let's get the Lightning name out there!
I have some blank cards, any idea for a design?

Hey Big Grizzly
From: Coach Jackson
We need playerswith, speed, size, and heart.
My point is recuit any and everybody, who know which players will workout. Recruit them all skinny, short, tall, big or whatever size or weight we need players. The quality of those players will sort itself out later.
Thank for being proactive looking to help improve the 2008 Lightning squad.

Gents we need all our resources put together to recruit and to work on having an O-line that is not our D-line and a D-line that is not our O-line. We will hold Combines in the areas that Craig listed with the exception of Burlington as I believe Burlington and Mount Vernon will take care of themselves. Please if you have any contacts for the newspapers or a field that we could use let me know and put me in otuch.

Craig,
We have lots of Lighting artwork for business cards, we can send you them over email. The football we use on the hats, shirts would be cool.

Holly, if you would please mail me the logo we have been using so I can make up some cards. I'll make 100-200 and more if we need them. I'm 100% onboard to help make Skagit Valley a good program.
Does anybody have the logo design used on our football jerseys? please send me a copy @ meninblack200220022002@yahoo.com

Craig,
Sorry, I have not gotten that to you, I had a family emergency with my grandmother and have had to go to Sequim on my days off. Brad will send you the logo in the next few days for the business cards, or you can google it. Go to google under 'images' skagit valley lightning it is the second image that is shown. The football with the lightning bolt coming out of it. You will recognize it when you see it as what we have on our hats etc.
I don't have access to the art for the jerseys.
Holly
