Speed Stacking Information for Grades 3-8

Dear Parents/Guardians and Students,

It is time to start another season of speed stacking with students in gr. 3-8 at

Douglas Park School.  We are looking forward to having some eager, energetic, and enthusiastic students joining the Speed Stacking Team again this year.  This sport teaches students:

“…perseverance and practice as a way to improve personal bests; the value of teamwork; and the importance of never giving up”.

If students have their own set of speedstacks they should bring them.  Only a few school sets will be available for students to share.  Success is based on a commitment to regular practice at home. For this reason, we urge you to consider purchasing a set. Sets may be available at Zippity Zoom Toy Store and Mastermind Toys or you can purchase online at http://www.mastermindtoys.com/Speed-Stacks-Competition-Cups.aspx (Canadian prices).

Practice Schedule: We will be practicing at lunch time in the Media Center!

Thank you for your cooperation, assistance and encouragement with this school activity. 

Sincerely,

D. Yuhasz & C. Cutting
