I know some people can't participate every day for various reasons. DON'T SWEAT IT! Every day is a new day!! I think it's awesome that everyone is doing what they can when they can. KEEP IT UP!
Thank you Laura for sending me this great link. If you are interested in learning more tips for athletes, coaches and parents in the sports community about getting through the pandemic...

YESTERDAY'S CHALLENGE: HAIKU for you
Brought to you by: Tahani D
HOW IT WILL WORK:
I'm asking you to write a Haiku about how you're feeling or what you're learning during quarantine. I'll share them anonymously on Monday!
YESTERDAY'S RESULTS:
MY HAIKU:
All that will matter
Will be kindness in the end
That is what I'll bring.
MORE HAIKUS:
I’m stuck in my house
I’m always washing my hands
I am very bored
Knock, Knock who is there
No one, just me raiding the
Refrigerator
Pandemic is here
Spread love, not COVID-19
United we stand
Yoga starts my day
And I'm grateful for Netflix
But, bouncing off walls
On a rainy day
We all play Wii sports tennis
Fun and exercise
I have a teen girl
She loves Tik Tok and YouTube
Glued phone on her hand
On Sunday morning
It is Sunjay Gupta time
Watches together
During quarantine
Marco sings us birthday song
Every morning
I wish to go skate
I want to go back to school
Miss my friends a lot
As boredom floods us
Hospitals work overtime
Stay home and stay safe
GREAT JOB!!!
TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED YESTERDAY!!!
ANYONE IS WELCOME TO PLAY, SO TELL YOUR FRIENDS!
