Update on Kandace's progress and trying out for the team.

Update posted by Michael Brown

Kandace just got done trying out for the basketball team for her middle school and found out tonight that she didn't make the team. She is pretty upset, but at the same time she is holding up well. I think she is going to use this to help motivate her to keep on practicing. Unfortunately, with every thing going on, I just didn't have the money to send her to the camps that would have helped her improve her skills and help her reach the level she wanted and need to reach to make the team. I feel guilty because I did not have the money to send her. If I could have sent her maybe she could have made team with some improvement. I did get to send her to one small mini camp, but it was like some of the bigger ones that would really help her improve. So I have pretty much decided to keep this fundraiser going so that maybe I can send her to some camps between now and next school year because she told me she still wants to play. She want to use this time to keep improving and try out again next year. I might even try to find her some one on one coaching. I feel for her and wish I could have did more, but providing needs like clothes, food, and a roof over our heads had to come first. If any of you want to help in anyway, it will be appreciated. I will continue to do updates on things we are doing to help her improve since that is what she desires to do.
