Plan your schedule now!

If history is any guide, we won't have a precise schedule, with game times, until the last minute. However, we do have a general idea of the days we'll play. Please try to plan your spring travel accordingly. It's never too early to let me know about potential conflicts. We've got a Mother's and Father's day in there.

Here is the general schedule of Sunday games:

March 29th

April 5th

April 12th - NO GAMES because of Easter

April 19th

May 10th

May 17th

May 24th

May 31st - NO GAMES because of Memorial Day Weekend

June 7th

June 14th - Makeup date

June 21st - Playoffs

June 28th - Playoffs

Don't forget, we'll have a bye week in there as well. When I get word of our game times and field locations, I'll let you know.

I need another night out like this one

I finally uploaded the photos of Jackie's goodbye party at Porter's.  It was a lot of fun.  Your captain drank to drown his sorrows (sorrows not shown in photo).  Some people - they will remain nameless - got a little silly and then later sick.  I got home at 2:45 a.m., not your typical Friday night for this civilized suburban home owner.

Here's a photo of the festivities.  Maybe I'll post more in the coming days.

Another happy hour before the season?

Season to start Sunday March 29th

Ally's post is appropos. The season is starting a week sooner than I originally anticipated. We'll kick off on March 29th.

I will be collecting dues soon.

We're getting closer!

Soccer Season

Who's excited for soccer season to start?!?!?

 

I personally CANNOT wait!

 

See you all soon!

Moxie & Boom

Griz and family took off to Colorado for a long weekend of skiing.  Tough life.

Griz's dog, Boom, came for a visit. 

Here's some shots of the pair on Valentines Day.

Flag football eyed

We're looking for an opportunity to play an intra-squad flag football game. We need a nice Saturday or Sunday. It's going to be fun, you should come out. Stay tuned.
