Team Party 

First I want to thank all of the parents for the support you gave the team all year.  Always great to hear the fans cheering the team on.  I do not know if we will be participating in any more baseball this year (at least as the 14TT - remember Fall League starts soon) but you never know.  Secondly, I would like to invite everyone to an end of the season party to be held next Tuesday September 1, 2009 at The Cottage in Crystal Lake (located on the northeast corner of Walkup and Crystal Lake Avenue) across the street from the Park District offices.  I know this is short notice, but that was one of the few dates they had available. The time would be from around 7-9pm to give everyone a chance to get home from work, school and sports. If everyone would please respond if you can or can not attend and how many would be attending in the family.  Pizza and pop is on the menu (alcohol not included - sorry but it is available).  If everyone can respond by tomorrow that would be great so we can determine if that date will work for everyone.  I know school has started, but the weekends are full and besides, its 1/2 price pizza on Tuesday at The Cottage.

 

Thanks,

 

Coach Mader


Call for Pictures

Greetings Team,
 
Now that the season has come to a close and we get ready to have pizza at the Cottage, I wanted to send out a note to the parents and families that have taken pictures or video of the team.  As I did last year, I will be making a CD / DVD for all of the players that will be a compilation of all the photos that have appeared on this website.  If you have photos or video that you would like to share, please let me know asap so I can make arrangements to collect this from you.
 
I look forward to hearing from you.
