Friends, neighbors, family and basically anyone you think might come. We are encouraging the 3 local schools who's students benefit from our scholarships to participate in this fundraising by distributing the vouchers to their students and faculty.

- May 29 thru June 1 - The Council of Ravens Roosts Annual Convention. From Jo Ann: The Council of Baltimore Ravens Roosts Convention begins Thursday, May 29, and ends Sunday, June 1, at the Castle in the Sand Motel. The theme this year is “Celebrating 50 Years of Fan-Tastic Baltimore Football. The cost this year is $60 per registrant. A registration form is available here. The Convention agenda is available here.
Commemorative shirts are also available: hoodies (men's sizes only) in gray or purple; men's t-shirts and tanks, and women’s t-shirts and tanks, available in white, gray or purple. Prices range from $11.00 for t-shirts and tanks to $20 for the hoodies. Larger sizes (2, 3, 4, & 5 XL) are an additional $2 or more.
In years past there were team events that any registered participant could enter, such as horseshoes, volleyball, tug-of-war, a scavenger hunt, bingo, miniature golf, and karaoke. All of the registration forms were to be submitted to me by the April 10 meeting. You can still register, but you will not get the "goodie bag". Make checks payable to Ravens Roost 44, and give to me at the meeting, or mail to 126 Pine Tree Rd., Ocean City, MD 21842. Please remember: Everyone who attends must be registered. There is no “sharing” of food and beverage.
I encourage our new members, as well as the members who have been in the Roost for a while, to attend the Convention. It is a great way to spend some time with our own Roost members and to meet fans from other Roosts. And, it’s always a lot of fun.
- Dues are due. From Jo Ann: Dues are past due - if you haven’t paid by now you are in arrears. Mail them to me at: Jo Ann Elder, 126 Pine Tree Rd., Ocean City, MD 21842. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at: jelder10@verizon.net, or call me at 410-250-5124. Thanks.

Funny Poop
- Two dwarfs go into a bar, where they pick up two prostitutes and take them to their separate hotel rooms. The first dwarf, however, is unable to get an erection. His depression is made worse by the fact that, from the next room, he hears his little friend shouting out cries of "Here I come again ...ONE, TWO, THREE...UUH!" all night long. In the morning, the second dwarf asks the first, "How did it go?" The first mutters, "It was so embarrassing. I simply couldn't get a hard on." The second dwarf shook his head. "You think that's embarrassing?" "I couldn't even get on the f...ing bed!!!"
Etcetera

Baltimore Ravens, let’s go
And put that ball across the line
So fly with talons spread wide
Go in and strike with Ravens pride
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Ravens dark wings take flight
Dive in and show them your might
For Baltimore and Maryland
You will fly on to victory
