CYC Sports

Friday night, August 6th was CYC Night at the AC St. Louis soccer game at the Soccer Park.  Over 200 CYC fans cheered on AC St. Louis as they played to a 0-0 draw with the first place Vancouver Whitecaps.  The draw earns AC St. Louis a point as they push for a spot in the playoffs.  At half time 3 of the CYC Archdiocisan Soccer Champions were announced and recognized by the crowd.  Those teams were St. Simon's Midget Boys coached by Tom Berger, Queen of All Saints Midget Boys coached by Dan Balassi and St. Joseph - Imperial Crusader Boys coached by Ron Gartner.  Thanks to all those who attended and participated in CYC Night with AC St. Louis.

CYC Nights are a great opportunity for CYC players, coaches and their families to see some great sporting events around the area for free or at a discounted rate.  For a current list of upcoming CYC Nights go to http://www.cycstl.net/events/cyc-nights

The Meyer Youth Center had twelve hard working teenagers drop by the week of July 27th.  They were members of the Catholic Heart Workcamp.  These teens came from various towns in Kansas, Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota.  They came specifically to do service projects.  At the MYC they trimmed trees, chopped down monster weeds, moved rocks and debris, but mostly they painted.  They painted two service buildings and the foundation of the entire gym building.  As you can tell from the 'before' picture above, the buildings certainly needed painting.  They did a great job in their 4 days at the center.  On their last day, the MYC staff provided lunch, and the kids also got to meet and talk with Monsignor Meyer.  He dropped by to personally thank them for their help.  If you would like to know more about this Catholic, service based organization, visit their website at www.heartworkcamp.com

       A Coed High School Kickball League, the short fall season, is forming for 3 Sundays in September.  Form a team of at least 5 boys and 5 girls and you are ready to go.  Come join the fun Sunday evenings, September 12th, 19th and 26th at the Meyer Youth Center.  We are only accepting 8 teams.  If you were thinking about trying kickball, but didn't want to commit to a full 10-12 week league, this is the perfect way to get together with friends in a fun atmosphere and give it a try.  More details and the registration form can be found by clicking here, or call Buzz Swanston at 353-8911 ext.13.  Deadline to sign-up is September 3rd.  This is a great way to kick start your 2010 school year!

       This is a common question people ask when using the online CYC ID card process.  It is a very good question, and one we do not take lightly.  Our website uses a secure certificate and digitally encrypts every transaction between your computer and the website.  Meaning that all information you enter (including your legal documents and photos) is securely encrypted before being sent to our server.

        Once we print your ID card, the legal documents you submitted are permanently deleted.  So in the very rare chance that someone would compromise the security of our server, they would still not be able to retrieve your legal documents.

         Hopefully that will ease everyone's concern about sending their birth certificate to us for the ID Card process.
