enjoyed participating in three sports in high school (tennis, u si n g Debi t / Cr ed i t car d .
basketball, and track) and two sports during my college years
(basketball and track and field). I started coaching when I was Pl ease con t act u s i f y ou r
22 years old and began my first head coaching job at age 23. I con t act i n f or m at i on
haven't stopped since. I am currently coaching three sport
ch an ges .
seasons, instructing two adult fitness classes : Stewie Kraze and
Tiger Burn, and Stewie Youth Fitness during the summer.
I play tennis during the summer months on a very competitive team. I also continue to challenge myself in doing 5k's, 10k's,
and 1/ 2 marathons. I teach Health Education, and I put a strong emphasis on fitness in my lessons. We can always keep making
improvements to our health. I think that's why I feel so much passion for it. Exercise makes me smile and feel good about
myself. Thank you Dawn for your commitment to the health of Stewartville!

STEWARTVILLESCHOOLPRODUCTION- LAW& ORDER: FAIRYTALEUNIT
In the fairy tale criminal justice system, the characters from fairy tales and nursery ryhmes are represented by two separate yet
equally ridiculous groups: the fairy tale police who investigate the fairy tale crime, and the fairy tale district attorneys who
prosecute the fairy tale offenders. These are their stories.
The showings will be February 15, 16, 17. (15th and 16th @7:00 PM, 17th @1:30 PM). We will have tickets available online
sometime in February at www.stewartvilletickets.com.
COMMUNITYTHEATREPRODUCTIONS
Please join us the first weekend in March for our Community Education Theatre productions. Stay tuned for the show
announcement!
Auditions will be held on January 14th in the PAC at 6:30 p.m.
Be sure to also join us the first two weekends in August as we present the much-loved family classic Joseph and the Amazing
Technicolor Dream Coat! Auditions tentatively slated for June 10th and 11th. A large cast of adults and older teens are needed,
plus a special children's chorus for those aged 9-14. Don't miss the all-time favorite musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Time
Rice!
