Yes it is.

My wife and I are the "Vice Presidents" of the parent group for our state and will be the "President" next year" I am also on a committee to help plan the parent weekend tailgates in the fall which are always fun. It's a great community and our daughter is having a great year. She has gotten stronger, learned how to handle failure and make decisions under duress, and got her first D1 hit in front of us in FL.
