Any of you that have children know the commitment that it takes when a family is involved in extra curricular activities. The time and money spent sometimes feels endless, but you keep the support going. You make the sacrifices and do whatever it takes in fear of, “The Alternative.”
As the father of three daughters, I know the funds we have spent through the years with all of the girl’s activities. Regardless if it was swimming, basketball, volleyball, chorus or color guard, we always seemed to get out the checkbook and spend the nonstop hours to make sure they had everything needed as we drove them to various locations. But we always enjoyed being in the stands to support them as best as we could and wouldn’t have it any other way.
