    GHSA “Items of Interest” September 2009 GHSA Names TeamIP as Exclusive Merchandising Partner The Georgia High School Association is pleased to announce a new merchandis- ing relationship with Team IP. As the GHSA’s exclusive merchandising partner, Team IP will provide our schools and their fans with more diversity in the items that will be for sale at playoff events. And GHSA schools will have greater oppor- tunities for pre-sale purchases through an official E-commerce GHSA store be- ginning this fall. According to Randy Sparks, Team IP’s CEO and President, “Team IP is thrilled to bring an affordable souvenir merchandise program for the student-athletes, school officials, and fan base in Georgia to include our new digital-to-garment E-com- merce store and “turn-key” State Championships Merchandise Program.” Team IP has over 17 years of experience in amateur, collegiate, and professional sports apparel that includes souvenir and on-site championship operations. Team IP is the official merchandising company for nine other state high school associa- tions across the nation. The GHSA hopes that member schools and their regions will take advantage of the opportunity to meet their merchandising teams through Team IP. When you go to the GHSA web site (www.ghsa.net), click on “Licensing” along the left side and then click on Team IP for more information. 4 QUARTERS 4 RESEARCH Once again the GHSA is pleased to present a valuable service opportunity for our schools to help in the battle against childhood cancer.

  • February 2007
    GHSA “Items of Interest” February 2007 Reminders of Changes in the Reclassification Process Incredibly, it is just about time to reclassify member schools for the 2008-2010 cycle. This work will begin in late spring and will be final- ized in January of 2008. The reclassification process has been changed over the past year, so it is important to refresh our collective memories about those changes. In March (2006) and August (2006), constitutional amendments passed two votes of the Executive Committee, and that also changed the procedures in By-Law 4.16. Since the final vote occurred after the printing of the 2006-07 GHSA Constitution and By-laws, this information can only be found in the min- utes of the past two Executive Committee meetings. Reclassification for public schools will be based on an average of the FTE counts provided by the Georgia Department of Education for the spring semester (2007) and the fall semester (2007). This means that the communications to the membership and appeals processes will be compacted into a timeframe beginning in late-October to ending in mid-January. It is believed that this change will provide more accurate information about member schools whose popula- tions are changing so rapidly. Private schools will be reclassified on their actual FTE counts at the beginning of the 2007-08 school year. Shortly after the fall count is released by the Department of Education, the classifications will be estab- lished and sent to schools for review (probably in early November) and schools will have two weeks to file their requests to play at a higher classification.

  • “Items of Interest”
    GHSA “Items of Interest” December 2005 / January 2006 Seasons Greetings and HAPPY NEW YEAR! HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM YOUR GHSA STAFF Front row (L-R): Julie Jones, Pam Thompson, Joyce Kay, Sheri Coker and Tanya Anderson. Back row (L-R): Dennis Payne, Steve Figueroa, Ralph Swearngin, Ernie Yarbrough and Gary Phillips. In the Greek language, there are two words that could be used to communicate the English word “new.” One strictly means new in time or unused. The other carries the meaning of higher quality. As the GHSA looks toward the unused days of 2006, there is a strong desire to provide a higher quality of service to member schools. In 2006, we look forward to the continuation of high quality athletics and competitive activities. There is every reason to believe that the great accomplishments in the fall sports and activities season will be matched in the winter and spring seasons. The use of central sites for both Team Dual Wrestling (Macon Centreplex) and Traditional Wrestling (The Arena at Gwinnett) has stimulated excitement. On Saturday, April 29, the second Student Leadership Summit will be held at the Macon Centreplex. Information about this event will be forthcoming after the first of the year. The first 100 schools to register will be able to send a female athlete, a male athlete, and a coach or administrator to this one-day conference. On Monday, June 26, the inaugural Coaches Symposium on Sports Medicine will be held at the Atlanta Marriott Northwest as a prelude to the Georgia Athletic Coaches Association annual conference. Recognized leaders in sports medicine will conduct practical workshops for the benefit of GHSA coaches.

  • The First News First Presbyterian Church
    The First News First Presbyterian Church May, 2018 From Your Pastor It’s hard to believe, but another school year is drawing to a close and summer is approaching. Many in our church family will be celebrating graduations, wed- dings and other transitions. Co-mingled with all of the celebrations is a bit of wistfulness… each celebration acknowledges the successful completion of one chapter, and as such, there is a bit of loss involved. Graduates will often be leaving home to go to college, start a new life, or a new job. Brides and grooms will be starting their own families that are connected to us, yet distinct in their own right. Transitions like these mean that everyone’s roles change a bit, and that can be frightening. But be of good courage: Life is a journey, and Jesus reminds us that “behold, I am with you…” He goes before us to prepare the way, and as our Good Shepherd, will find us and bring us back when we have gone astray. I pray that all of us who are facing significant times of transition will allow ourselves to feel the joy, the sadness and the anxiety that changes bring, AND that we can rest in the comfort of God’s presence in all, through all and beyond all that life can throw at us. Shalom, Pastor Rebecca VBS Looking For “Shipwrecked” Decorations We need some decorations to make VBS special for our children. Do you have any of the items below that we could borrow? If so, drop off to Susan anytime between now and May 11.
