While you mentioned the volleyball team wished not to be publicly recognized for its championship season, and we certainly understand and respect those wishes, we still wanted to acknowledge the team's accomplishments. The work ethic and determination required by each team member to excel and win a state championship is impressive and are qualities we admire in Weld County residents. We are tremendously proud of the volleyball team for its success! Enclosed with this letter is a proclamation, signed by each county commissioner, in recognition of the Eaton Reds volleyball team winning the 2017 3A CHSAA state championship. Feel free to share it with the team and school however you see fit. incerely, BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Steve' Moreno, Chair Hello
