After school soccer program ends with celebration

Submitted by Lopez Island Family Resource Center

The Lopez Island Family Resource Center’s After-School Elementary Soccer Program finished with an end of the season pizza celebration at Lopez School. More than 100 kids and family members attended the event. The program had 54 elementary-age students participating in the six-week program, which included bi-weekly practices and two days of interisland games with Orcas Island teams. It was a fantastic season with a particular focus on developing soccer skills, working as a team, respecting one another, and having fun! Many thanks to our two soccer sponsors, Edwin Termulo CPA and Lopez Village Market, as well as our fantastic coaches and parent volunteers, including Steven Miller, Brian Kvistad, Jeremy Rempel, Nick Jones, Pauline Bartle, Wendy Stephenson, Christopher O’Bryant, Jennifer Greenberg, Megan Constable, Dino Cankusic, Laurie Bullock, Karly Leyde, Tommer Roush and Greg Hamilton.
