ECFC + Peter Fewing Overnight Soccer Camp at Waskowitz


Every summer the Club partners with Peter Fewing Soccer Camp to offer a three-night overnight soccer camp for ECFC players, their siblings and friends. It’s a super fun time!


Camp runs July 29–Aug. 1 at Camp Waskowitz in North Bend. Campers sleep in cabins, play soccer, swim and have fun. Camp begins Wednesday afternoon and concludes Saturday mid-day. Gather your teammates and sign up! This is an entirely optional opportunity, and siblings and friends of ECFC players are welcome.
 

Help wanted! Club Uniform Coordinator


The Club needs a new volunteer uniform coordinator — could this be you? (Or you and a friend?) This is a low-key role with some bursts of activity around uniform-ordering time, easily shared. We’d also like to explore setting up a Gear Closet, where families can give/buy/sell uniform items and soccer gear. Get in touch with Nancy Chaney to hear more about this opportunity to support our players and the Club!


Big thanks to outgoing uniform coordinator Kathleen!
