Hello Rattler Parents,
Some of you may have heard from your son's, the unfortunate news of the Dodson family. After Thursday night's game, Tavonn Dodson (#4 Varsity) went home to find out his mom had passed away from a tragic accident. Tavonn has two brothers, Paul (graduated NC last year and former football player) and Tony (a sophmore at NC). To help the family with the unexpected financial burden the NCHS football program will do the following:
Coach's wife, Kathy Cole will be taking the VARSITY player photos and will be donating the proceeds to the Dodson family. VARSITY photos are scheduled for this Tuesday. Thank you Kathy!
-
- Again, these are varsity photos on Tuesday, October 20th. The boys will be bringing home an order form (click here for .doc form) on Monday. Do not write the check to Kathy Cole Photography - make checks payable to: NCHS Football.
- If you want to make a donation to further help the Dodson family you can add it to your payment. If your photo package is $30 and you want to donate $20; write the check for $50 and we will know you are donating to the Dodson family.
- Please take advantage of this opportunity to support the family and get photos of your player. If you do not want the photos but can donate then please return your donation and make a note on the order form stating it's a donation to the Dodsons.
- We will consider deducting money from the Booster Club account to help the family and identifying a way to replace the funds after the services. We are thinking about a car wash but will welcome any ideas you may have to raise money for the family and/or to replace the Booster money.
- If you are not a VARSITY parent and would like to help the family, it would be greatly appreciated. Please send donations with your son. They can give the donation to their coach. Checks should be made payable to: NCHS Football and simply note "Dodson" on the memo line of your check.
The Phoenix Fire Department made a donation to help the family and the Desert Mountain coaches sent a donation to us after hearing about Tavonn's mother. Thank you to both Desert Mountain and the Fire Department!!!!
We do not know when services are yet but will be sure to send out a communication when we know the arrangements.
Thank you to all of you have already expressed interest in helping out. This is a difficult time for the Dodson family (and our boys!) - thank you in advance, for stepping up and helping out this Rattler family in their time of need!! Your support is appreciated.

SATURDAY MORNING FILM/BREAKFAST I am looking for volunteers for this Saturday morning's team breakfast (during films.) In fact, if there is anyone interested in coordinating any of the upcoming Sat morning breakfasts I would love the help. With regards to this Saturday, we have no volunteers as of now so the menu or breakfast items are open. Please respond to Janet Porter if you can:
1. Coordinate a Saturday morning breakfast which means take the lead in getting other parents to donate to breakfast and make sure the boys get all they need for that particular morning i.e. paper plates, condiments, breakfast, etc. If you can take the lead, let me know which date will work for you. I will check with Coach because he may not have film on Sat the weeks we have Thurs night games.
2. Donate to this Saturday morning - either buy breakfast foods, cook or donate money
3. Contribute to an upcoming break and if so, which date? JanetMPorter@cox.net
Thank you in advance for your on-going support!!
Go Rattlers!!
