Roost #44 Poop
- Dates to Remember:
- Friday – WCS Meeting @ …
- May 30 - Ravens Roost #44 17th Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament @ Ocean Pines Golf & Country Club. Registration forms can be had here. We are expecting another sell out, so be sure to sign up early - don’t get shut out as some did last year.
- 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. Please think about organizing a team to show off our talent. Specific information and sign-up sheets will be available at the April meeting, so talk to your Roost friends and come up with a team to participate.
All of the registration forms must be submitted to me by the April 10 meeting. 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.
Any questions, please call me at 410-251-4360 or e-mail me at jelder10@verizon.net. Folks, we only have 13 members signed up so far. Please consider spending the weekend at the Castle - it’s not only loads of fun and camaraderie but also supports the Council.
- 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.
- The Golf Committee is requesting members to bring liquor, wine and beer donations to the April & May meetings to be used in our basket of cheer at our Golf Event on May 30th.

Funny Poop
- A faith healer asked Moshe how his family was getting along. "They're all fine," Moshe said, "Except my uncle. He's very sick." "Your uncle is not sick," the faith healer said. "He THINKS he's sick." Two weeks later, the faith healer ran into Moshe on the street. "How is your uncle getting along?" he asked. Moshe shrugged, "He THINKS he's dead."
Etcetera
- Got poop? Let me know! I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday I’ll try to include it. Your input is appreciated.

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
