Thanks
to all for making The DSSSF a huge success!
We have finished all the accounting for the Soccer Saluting Soldiers Festival,
and last night it was our pleasure to present Operation Troop Support with
a check for $7,700 from this year's event! This is a full 10% increase over
last year's total, and brings the grand total over 3 years to almost $20,000!
These figures do not include over $1500 in direct donations made directly to
the OTS representatives at the field this year. They were likewise overwhelmed
with the number of gifts, cards and supplies they collected. The Festival staff,
Danvers Youth Soccer and Operation Troop Support wish to again extend our sincere
thanks to you, your teams and parents as well as all of the volunteers and
sponsors who stepped forward for making this year's Festival such a success! The

Attention
Parents! This video "Attitudes are Contagious" is a
must see as a soccer parent!
This video was produced by Mass Youth Soccer, our parent organization. The
video had its national debut at the US Youth Soccer Workshop in Indianapolis
in 2004. Both sessions were well-attended and the presentation of the video
was well-received. Click on one of the links to view
