The first get together for the all baseball and softball
teams will be Wednesday, May 28, 2008. At this event,
all parents, coaches, and players are asked to be present
for photos and a possible practice and meeting with your
team. Parents will be asked to sign up for volunteer times
and practice help. Everyone is required to lend a hand; if
it is the snack for the week, practice drills, hauling the
equipment, whatever. Make these programs easy! If everyone
lends some time, the job is simple! Attendance is
required.
Photo packages will be available before the event and that day. Payment for packages is required at time of photo. Photos will be sent to your home after they are developed.

All of this food will be sold for OUTRAGEOUSLY LOW PRICES.
Look for the May edition of the Town Tidings for more details and the specifics. It’s the best family value around!
