All Right!!! Yard Sale!!!

Before I give you the final total in sales, I want to Thank the following players and parents who helped: Pam & Jeff gammas for getting this event off the ground.

The following donated items for the Yard Sale: Sandy, vane, Pam & Jeff gammas, Melissa, Thro, Drew, Mike, the Brooks, march & Andrew, anise & Adam, Patti & Ryan, Luis & his boys, Tony & scalier & Rob Wills.

The following players/parents worked the Sale: Thank you: vane, Jenny and march for getting the items for sale organized. Patti & Ryan were the 6 am shift and thanks for the great bagels!!
anise and Adam were also the morning shift. Tony was a great wheel dealer, then Rob stepped in was a real salesperson out there. Players who help: Alex, Andrew, scalier, Hunter, Eleanor, Sam, Mary, McCarthy. The later shift was: Valerie melee, march, Jenny, Matt. The clean up shift was: McGee and his truck - Mike - Valerie - march and vane. UP lives alone and dose not have anything to donate but will make a donation to the club. Thanks UP.

We are planning on using this money to host an Awards Day - for both the club, masters and your family. A Bar-B-Que, games, prizes and a few awards. This will happen at the end of the summer.

I am disappointed in the lack of team participation in both the donations and help. But we will still use this money for the entire team.
