·
House:
The June meeting will be held @ Bourbon
Street on the Beach, 12601 Coastal Hwy, Ocean City,
MD 21842 (old home of Abby Burger, behind the Holiday Inn and in front of
Northside Park). I’m sure Ron will have
more details in the upcoming weeks.
· Convention: Starts tomorrow. See you there! Sue and I expect to get down to the Castle in
the Sand on Thursday around lunchtime and will set up the Hospitality room as
soon as they allow us in, so figure the room to open, say, 4pm. Figure on the room opening 12 pm on Friday and
Saturday (actually we're early risers, so it'll be open sooner, but I think
we're playing mini golf on Friday morning, so we won't open until we get back). Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
· Apparel: The
Ravens Roost 44 on line store will be open on July 1, 2021. Orders will be shipped to your home during
the month of August, To access the store
the link is Ravensroost44.itemorder.com.
Thanks, Rich Hansen.
· Entertainment:
o The date for the picnic with White Horse park on Saturday July 17th from 10:00am-5:00pm.
o Road Trip: As of last week,
this is the latest update from Gary: I was able to reserve 40 tickets for
the Ravens vs Dolphins game. We have 2
full rows in section 328 which is in an upper corner near the Ravens side of
the stadium. Good news is that the
escalators from the ground level are next to our section so there won't be a
lot of stairs to climb.
The concession stands
are nearby as well. The ticket price is
a little less than what I estimated but I am waiting to get a confirmation on
the cost of the bus before making any changes to the balance owed for the game
package (ticket, bus, shirt, koozie). I
hope to have an exact number in the next week or so and at that point I will
let everyone know what the balance of their payment is.
As of right now, 19 of
the 20 rooms have been booked and we have 38 people in our group. I am still waiting for a couple deposits to
come in but I suspect that slow mail service is the cause of the delay.
With the game being
shown on Thursday night in primetime on national TV, this is turning into a big
game with lots of interest and the trip should be a blast.
Let me know if you have
any questions.

· Good of the Roost: - Hey Ravens women, let's get together and meet for lunch at a local
restaurant or picnic at a park. Some of
our guys have been doing this pre pandemic for a while so I thought it'd be
good for us women to get to know each other and to have a "girls day"
out. Contact Donna at 410-627-7697. If we have enough interest, we can pick a date
and time. Thanks.

Funny Poop
· Last
year I replaced several windows in my house and they were the expensive
double-pane energy efficient kind. But
this week I got a call from the contractor complaining that his work has been
completed for a whole year and I had yet to pay for them.
Boy oh boy did we go 'round. Just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am
automatically stupid. So, I proceeded to
tell him just what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year…that in one
year the windows would pay for themselves. There was silence on the other end of the line
so I just hung up and I haven't heard back. Guess I must have won that silly argument.
