I am the co-chair team lead over team enhancement coordinator and community events coordinator. My co-chair and I are responsible for the following:

• Wednesday team meals - We have planned 11 meals for the season. Visiting over 20 restaurants and managed to get 10 of them to donate the full meal or the main entree, saving us thousands of dollars. Each week we have a list of volunteers that we are over that help us set up, serve, and clean up for 92-100 team members.
• Planning service projects - We planned 3 service projects with Daybreak Live Events; soapbox derby, lady bug festival and clean up crew for the arts festival. They ended up donating money towards our team for doing so, which was a win for both.
• Planning team activities - Some that we have done this season are; beginning of the season bbq for almost 200 people, Youth football camp, West Jordan 4th of July parade, team swim and bbq party, beginning of season tailgating, senior night celebration. We are also planning the end of season banquet to be held in December.
