fortunately, this year’s scholarships will be awarded.

scholarships later in May.

yet.

planning events. Fundraising efforts
for the 2021 Penguin Swim Team will be starting sometime in April. Events in the planning stages include:
Wine/Beer tastings at local wineries and brew pubs, the annual Booze Cruise,
Guest bartending events, and another charity weekend at The Shrimp Boat. Our Team goal for this year is $16,000.

mid-August, trip to Tangier Island, hopefully away trip to Houston,
depending on date, pub crawl on Kent Island in May, crab feast in
October and a bull/oyster roast/Halloween party on 10/31, Capitols
game in fall. We'll keep all posted
on dates.
o
Shorebirds
Game: Unfortunately, Marty
cannot chair this event committee as hoped, so we are looking for someone to
take over. July 16 seems to be the
likely date, but we need to move quickly - March is the month the Shorebirds
usually try to get a deposit from us.

Good
of the Roost:
Ravens Poop

Good daily dose of Ravens news notes and nuggets here. It’s getting to the point where I can hardly
stand ESPN, but you can go here to stay up to date
with all of the AFC North news.

Out and about and can’t watch the
game? You can listen to the Ravens on
the radio! (I know, right?) Go here: https://www.baltimoreravens.com/game-day/coverage

Local Poop
·
Everything is cancelled. Practice you social distancing. We’ll get through this.
Funny Poop
·
A U. S. Navy
destroyer stops four Mexicans in a row boat rowing towards California. The captain gets on the loud-hailer and
shouts, "Ahoy, small craft. Where
are you headed?"
One of the Mexicans puts down his oar, stands up, and
replies, "We are invading the United States of America to reclaim the
territory taken by the USA during the 1800s."
The entire crew of the destroyer doubled over in laughter. When the captain was finally able to catch his
breath, he gets back on the loud-hailer and asks, "Just the four of
you?"
The same Mexican stands up again and shouts, "No, we're
the last four. The rest are already
there!"
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.
