Registration and payment for the 2010 CapitaLand Camp is due to Coach Romanowski prior to June 1st. With the extended Memorial Day break this year, please get the paperwork to Coach Romanowski prior to the vacation. Equipment will be distributed prior to exams starting in June.
If you are considering applying for the East Greenbush Education Foundation’s Summer Enrichment Application, please goto:
http://www.egedfoundation.org/awards_summer.htm and then click on the “application” link on the left.
The application can be used for a wide range of diverse enrichment programs; a football camp is one that has been approved in the past. While there is no guarantee that you will recieve any financial support or reimbursement, I can guarantee that you won’t have any chance to receive anything if you (the player) don’t apply.
Columbia Football will be participating in the 2010 CaptiaLand Football Camp. It is open to our CURRENT players in 8-11 grades. Camp dates will be June 27 – July 1. If you have not received the brochure that I emailed around, please email me: romanowskidr@egcsd.org or coachromanowski@yahoo.com . Paperwork and payment are due prior to June 1.
Our week #4 game against “A” Amsterdam is replaced by a Liberty Division game at home against Troy HS. This is the result of the reconfigured AA enrollment numbers by the NYSPHSAA.
Also, our Week #3 Varsity game at Colonie HS will LIKELY be a Thursday Night game due to Rosh HaShanah. Please note that these changes are likely, but our schedule still remains tentative.
New York State has recently changed the enrollment threshold used as the cut off between Class AA and Class A for football. As a result, Troy will move back up to the AA’s. Our schedule will subsequently change as well. Once it is finalized, I will make it available.
The following is the TENTATIVE Varsity schedule for 2010. Week #1 @ CBA**. Week #2 Niskayuna. Week #3 @ Colonie. Week #4 Amsterdam**. Week #5 @ Schenectady. Week #6 Shaker. Week #7 @ LaSalle. Non Liberty League games are designated with **.
The JV schedule would have the same opponents, just opposite field sites as the Varsity game.
