Gentlemen - 

I need a quick answer to two questions.

First, the folks at Germantown want us to work their concession stand on the weekend of April 20th and 21st (Thunder) for an AAU tournament they will be hosting that weekend.  If we're able to pull this off, they will allow us to play our games this season for FREE!  What's in it for you?  David Allison will be able to grant us the dollar value ($550.00) towards team fee and that means we'd all pay less for our player fee!  Could be a savings of 40 to 50 bucks.  
 
We need to have 4 or 5 people to cover in shifts.  We have to cover 8 to 8 on Sat. and 8 to 6 on Sun.  Do me a favor and contact Bobby Blair at 424-5394 or bblair@insightbb.com as soon as possible so we can get this done.  Ask you wife, girlfriend or mistress (just not all three - it would be cramped and akward) to come with you to help fill the spots.  Come on guys you know there's nothing better than the smell of hot dogs, fries and popcorn in the air!  Call Bobby now!

Second, the first practice of the 2013 Pirates will be this Saturday March 23rd at Noon at Des Pres Park (4709 Lowe Road).  This is the same Hikes Point baseball location we have used in the past- directions are on the BLOG).  Time to start loosing up the arms.  We'll work on the legs the next go round.  Let me know if you can make it.  I know March Madness will be ongoing but it's time to start getting ready.
