Registration information is now available for the 2013 NRHEG Summer Recreation Program.

There will be evening practices and games. Practices will be held the first week of each session, with a game schedule to follow.

If you have a child who is a preschooler (age 4 by June 1, or was in kindergarten this year), they will be playing T-ball. First and 2nd-graders will be playing baseball. The season for pre-k, K, 1-2 grade will begin June 10.

Third and 4th-grade boys will be playing baseball. Their practices will begin June 3.

Third and 4th-grade girls will have the opportunity to play softball, but they will need to register with Wendy Schultz at the NRHEG Elementary School.

According to her mom, NRHEG softball coach Wendy Schultz, junior Jade Schultz’s knee injury suffered in the Panthers’ state tournament semifinal game against Minneapolis Washburn is worse than expected. An MRI showed she wrecked her ACL, MCL, and meniscus. She will need surgery and will be out the entire softball and volleyball season. She hopes to work hard and be able to play some of the basketball season next year.
