Guys,

 

I remember this team from the second Morris tournament.  It was the only time we got behind and came back to win.  And we won fairly decisively after being down by three or so runs. 

 

This will not be a walk in the park.

Field Assignments

Hello Blast Blue,

 

Thanks for all your responses regarding field maintenance assignments. By popular demand, we are going to contract out our portion of the maintenance for field one. A special thank you to Manny for finding us some young enthusiastic workers. Please bring your monetary contribution ($20) to practice and give to me. Any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me.


Best,

Beth

Beth,
Yes. Dominic and his friends can do this. I think it's a good experience for them to learn responsibility. I'll likely be there most of the time to help, which is OK by me. I think that if I paid him or a friend $8 per hour and had 1 of them there at all times, that should about cover it and I can make up any difference. 
I may need some help training the boys on lining the field on Thursday if I'm out of town (still up in the air). Since our team is playing first on Thursday, I take it that one of our coaches/parents will help them with that.

Hi Manny,

 

Heard the team had some great games yesterday, sorry I missed them. Paul mentioned that you thought Dominick (and a friend) would be interested in maintaining the fields on Thursday through Sunday. I just wanted to confirm with you before I emailed Julie. I've attached the schedule Julie sent me. I also want to confirm that $20 per family is enough for the boys and the work they will be doing ($240). Most families have replied in favor of chipping in money to have someone maintain the fields. I look forward to your reply and I will then touch base with Julie.

 

Best,
Beth

 

 

Ottawa Bandits June 26 RR

Thanks Francos for sending out the address to Peck Park. Here's directions to the park sent to me by the guy running the tournament:

Peck Park in Ottawa
Sunday june 26

Take Rt 80 to Rt 23 (exit 90). Turn South on RT 23 going through old downtown and over Illinois river
(Bridge is under construction) At the Fourth stoplight after the bridge there is a big water tower. This is West McKinley Road. Turn right or west go two blocks turn south. Park is strait ahead.

If you miss the last light just look to the west and you will see the fields. Just turn and come back

Blast Tournament Family Participation

I like the idea as well. I think my son and his friends would be interested. I'll check when I get back into town.
I should be able to check in on them during the tournament from time to time to make certain things are going OK.

Just a thought!  Let me know what you think.

>> The BRW Blast tournament is quickly approaching and we need everyone's help to make it a success. The league is asking that each team be responsible for maintenance/supervision of a field. Blast Blue has been assigned field #1 throughout the weekend/tournament. We have 12 families and 20 time slots to fill. Please reply back with preferred time slots. Please note that we will do the best to accomodate everyone's request. Your flexibility in scheduling is appreciated.
