Marathon

Hey Gang,

Did you know the money raised from working 1 (ONE) day of the year pay for equipment the teams need. We buy balls, caps and most important is always there to help cover whatever is short from trips. This year since we did not make much on the garage sale it helped pay for awards for the club and masters. All this for only 1 (ONE) day of work!!!

Do you realize how much work Rob Wills does on this Marathon? For about one month he has been asking everyone, every workout to help. We only have 6 people who are totally completed with forms and about 100 players or parents who have not stepped up to help!!! How would you feel if you were Rob and asking the same old questions, can you work, did you bring your forms and getting the same old answers: I can't work, let me check my schedule, OH I forgot my forms. Rob not only getting people to work, filling out forms, making sure everything is correct... Rob has also attended meetings, he will meet with everyone to set up stations - directions - working a few hours before everyone and staying later than everyone making sure things are done correctly, writing and or meeting with directors after the Marathon, and some can't remember to return your forms.

Some of you have made other commitments you and we understand... but some of you either think let someone else do work and I guess some of you just don't care.

By Saturday (for club) and Monday (for masters) if we do not have all the forms and drivers - next year we will not work the Marathon and we will collect $50.00 per player to help cover cost for equipment and cover the cost of trip we are short on. Along with the $20 person for team expenses.

Happy Thanksgiving - YES, even for those who don't give!!! Thank You Rob!!!
