Recommendation:
“I have known Matt for years and have seen first hand the results which resulted in increased performance,
especially with athletes that have no knowledge or very little training when it comes to increasing strength,
agility and speed. He is a certified trainer and I would feel very comfortable with any player of mine being
instructed by him.”

– Allen Gleaton, Varsity Head Coach, PAC Panthers Football

Hello PAC Senior families!
God is good!  Like some public and private schools are doing for graduation this year, we will be utilizing Bray Park, home of the PAC Panthers (at least for football, baseball and cheer!) for our PAC 2020 Graduation Ceremony!  I just got the approval yesterday from the Lexington County Recreation and Aging Commission.  They have only asked that we practice social distancing as much as possible.

We will hold it on Saturday, June 27 in the morning, with a start time of probably 9 or 10 am.  I have secured a PA System and am working on a few people (or don’t have 2020 seniors) to help set up that day.  We would like all graduates, if possible, to wear cap and gown.  It doesn’t matter the color, and if you don’t have one/don’t want to purchase one, check with friends to see if you can borrow one.  But it is not required, so please don’t let that be a hindrance!

I envision needing help with a program of grads to hand out to families and a photo op place at the field for our grads with their friends and families to take pictures at.  We will ask that each family submit a picture and short bio of their graduate to include in program.  If you have a talent in one of those areas, please let me know!

At this point, I now need a new “yes” or “no” list of grads for this new date.  Can each of you email me, kchucks@hotmail.com, with the following:

1.  Grad attending – yes or no; if yes, state full name of your graduate(s)
2.  Approximate number in family attending event – just “guesstimate” for our planning purposes, please
3.  Willingness to help with event (set up, clean up, program, photo op, etc.), if you are able (not required, of course!)
   

Thank you, everyone!

We are happy to announce that the PAC Prom has been rescheduled for

July 17, 2020.

Ticket sales will be opened to PAC students only until June 1st. As of May 19th, the venue has a cap of 135 participants, but we expect that number to increase by July.

After June 1st, tickets will be available to other homeschool groups and a waiting list will be made once we reach 135 participants. As restrictions are loosened, those on the waiting list will be added to the attendance.

All PAC Spring Sports’ seasons were canceled in mid-March due to the Covid 19 pandemic. It is the beginning of May and we are making plans to start back this summer with preseason activities for the upcoming fall sports as the Governor allows businesses and activities to open up.

We plan to stay in compliance with the orders of the State, therefore, if permission is not given by June 1st, all activities will be pushed back accordingly. But for now, we are planning for June 1st to be the day activities organized for the summer to begin within some new guidelines. We do not want to be foolish, we will act with caution, but we do not want to cancel everything out of fear. We also expect each family to participate or choose not to participate depending on their comfort level.

Guidelines to Get Back to Play:

1) Covid 19 Waiver- All participants of any PAC sanctioned event/activity will have to print, sign, and turn in a waiver before you will be permitted to participate. This document can be found on the website, pacpanthers.com, under forms.

2) Social Distancing- All spectators and players will adhere to the guidelines of social distancing as much as the sport will allow. As we cannot and will not be the social distancing police, each person will need to monitor themselves as to their comfort level while in groups.

3) Germs- Hand sanitizer will be provided in group settings for participants, but each participant will be responsible to use it and to avoid touching their face after coming in contact with a ball or other equipment that is shared among players. When possible, we ask that players use their own equipment such as baseball bats, helmuts, gloves, etc.

4) Hydration- We ask that each player bring their own water or sports drink to practice or games. Water coolers will be provided if necessary for refills but not drinking containers.

5) Sickness-if you are sick in any way, please do not come to practice or games. If you find out you are positive with Covid 19 and have unknowingly come to practice or a game, inform your coach.

Each sport will begin on the normal schedule as long as facilities and parks are open for use. Please subscribe to the website so you will receive all updates on sports and activities. Please contact each sports’ director if you have questions regarding that sport and when it will be beginning if you are unsure. We look forward to 2020/2021 competitive season in all of PAC’s sports to be better than ever!

GO PANTHERS!!

If you ordered items from the PAC store, they arrived and are ready for pick up.

Please email Jennifer Aurednik at pacpanthers@windstream.net to arrange for pickup.

The PAC Board members have now offered their thoughts on the stance PAC will take regarding the Coronavirus and how PAC will respond.  The board does not think it would be responsible to continue to practice and play games as scheduled. These are extraordinary times and our country along with most other countries in the world has taken extraordinary measures to attempt to slow the spread of this virus.  The PAC Board believes all practices should be canceled and we should adhere to the same regulations that SCISA and SCHSL teams are having to follow. For years PAC directors and coaches have worked at establishing relationships with SCISA and SCHSL by scheduling with their teams. If we ignore what the nation is being asked to do and continue to practice and play games with other homeschool teams, it could give them more reasons for not allowing PAC to join their organizations and the years of work to establish a credible reputation could be destroyed.
Another question we need to ask ourselves is could we be liable in any way if one of our players comes in contact with a carrier of the virus while at a PAC practice or event and spreads it?  These are uncharted waters and as many have pointed out a very fluid situation that is changing daily if not hourly.  With all of these concerns and considerations, the PAC board has decided to cancel all practices and games until further notice and follow the guidelines given by the Governor.  

All PAC sports practices and games are canceled through the end of March at which time we will reevaluate and decide how to proceed.

I know all will continue to be in prayer not only for PAC but that the peace of God will reign over all and that many will find hope in Him during these troubled times.

In Him, Jennifer Aurednik

We had a few more requests to order some PAC hoodies and fan wear, so the store is open for ONE WEEK. It will close on March 3.

You can order PAC short sleeve or long sleeve cotton blend or moisture wicking shirts.Hoodies and crew neck sweat shirts are also available.

Everything is available in Sport grey or Navy with the exception of the moisture wicking short sleeve shirt which is this year’s player practice shirt. All registered players will receive a practice shirt so do not order your player one unless you want an extra!

Please go to this link to access the store: https://323sports.com/SLYZ-2D2H/

All items will be shipped three weeks after Jan. 27th. No items will be added after the closing date and this is the last time to order this year.

The orders will arrive at Jennifer Aurednik’s house.  Please contact Jennifer Aurednik at pacpanthers@windstream.net to make arrangements for pickup.
