I still bleed purple and white since Jeff played sports but Ryan went to RHS. The west side of the city goes to LW, west of 148th unless they've moved the boundaries and I haven't kept up."
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy for reminding me that many Lake Washington H.S. youth and their parents are vested and loyal citizens of the City of Redmond. My daughter plays basketball for the 'Stangs, so I'll try a little harder :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the linkage. Friday’s coverage was the culmination of 7+ years of hoping and wishing between RCTV and LWSD Superintendent Dr. Chip Kimball. Given the fact that none of our technical crew had any prior experience and the games had (to our surprise) been rescheduled 45 minutes earlier than planned, I thought the results were pretty successful.
ReplyDeleteAlthough these games were produced as a sort of trial balloon, both the District and RCTV hope to pursue other athletic/academic partnerships in the coming months. Thanks again and “Stay Tuned”.
