Flo’s was founded on April 29th, 2011 by Daniele and Davide Uccello. It was a dream the two brothers had since they started working for their father at an early age. Daniele has always had a passion for cooking and Davide has always had a passion for service. It was a match from day one! Davide was 19 and Daniele was 24 when the two brothers started talking about it. There was little support from anyone besides their father and mother Salvatore and Franca Uccello, others thought they were too young. The two Sicilian born brothers never gave up, and after years of persistence it finally happened! Ever since then the two brothers and their management team have been committed to provide excellent service and authentic Italian food at the right value.
Rockford High School RAM PRIDE

GO RAMS!
Welcome To
Rockford High School A Message to Student-Athletes, Parents & Fans A student’s education does not end at the conclusion of the school day if they are involved in extra-curricular activities. Some values, in fact, can be better learned through the involvement in activities such as drama, music, and athletics, rather than in the classroom. Values such as fairness, caring, responsibility, and respect are the foundations of sportsmanship. The focus of high school athletics should be on the learning of these lifelong values. In order for these principles to be taught, it is critical that everyone – players, coaches, parents, and fans – conducts themselves in a sportsman-like manner. Unfortunately, the failure on the part of even one of these groups can undermine the efforts of others. Some individuals call the disrespect shown by taunting and trash talking as just “a part of the game.” If schools and communities are to justify programs, they must unite to let students, student-athletes, parents, spectators and communities know that disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated in our athletic programs. “Sportsmanship is defined as those qualities of behavior which are characterized by generosity and genuine concern for others.” That means a concern for everyone, including opposing teams, coaches, fans, and officials.
To our parents: Please fill the stands in support of your sons and daughters,
while realizing that high school athletics are a form of education, and that the score is not nearly as important as the lessons learned.
To our fans: Please display a positive attitude at all times, doing your best to
discourage cheers that taunt opposing teams, fans, and officials – cheers that distract from the focus of high school athletics.
To our athletes: Remember that you volunteered to be a part of Rockford High School athletics, and that all of your ac-
tions are a reflection on yourself, your team, your school, and the whole community. Please conduct yourself in a manner that brings honor and pride to the community of Rockford. And to everyone: Enjoy the game and remember –
“Good Sports are Winners!” Tim Erickson Director of Athletics Rockford High School

THIS PROGRAM IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE ROCKFORD SPORTS BOOSTERS Rockford Sports Boosters was established to stimulate and encourage interest among student athletes, parents and the community in high school and middle school athletics. We assist in the funding of projects and purchasing equipment that promote the enrichment of Rockford Athletic Programs. Your continued support of our concession stands, fund raising activities, becoming a booster patron and/or placing a business ad in the Sports Program helps provide us with the financial resources to give back to our athletes. In years past we have purchased approximately $50,000 of equipment and training needs for our athletes and sports teams annually. We also provide needed funding into the coaches activity funds. The Rockford Sports Boosters meet every third Monday of every month at 7:30 in the LGI room at the high school. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend and be part of the excitement of Rockford Ram Athletics.
