Weekly Poop 5/4/11

Roost #44 Poop
·         Dates to Remember:
·        Friday – Water Conservation Meeting @
·        Saturday, May 14 – “Some of us will be going to a Delmarva Shorebirds vs. Greensboro Grasshoppers game to sell raffle tickets for our Scholarship on May 14, 2011.  The Shorebirds have won 10 straight and are hotter than a firecracker, speaking of which there are fireworks that night and you know how spectacular they are.  No bus but we certainly can carpool.  We will coordinate at RR# 44 meeting on Thursday May 12.  Hope to see you.”  Kelly
·        Thursday, June 2 – Convention Weekend begins!  This is the Council’s largest fundraiser so be sure to sign up for what is always a great event.  From Jo Ann: “Members may still register but will not receive the souvenir package.  Please mail to me at 126 Pine Tree Rd., Ocean City, MD, 21842.  If you have any questions, please call me at 410-250-5124 or 410-251-4360 any time.  I will have more information of the special events--karaoke, miniature golf, scavenger hunt, bingo, etc.--at the next meeting, along with signup sheets.  The Council usually requests help with staffing the food tent and other incidental events.  Hopefully, I'll have more on that month as well.

This is a great time to meet other Roost members, as well as spending time with our own Roost members.  There's always plenty of beer and food available.  The price of $55 is very reasonable when you consider all the benefits.

You must be registered for the convention to participate in the events.  Each person attending must have proper credentials, so spouses must be registered as well.  There can't be any "sharing" this year.  This includes admittance to our hospitality room.  This is the Council's rule--not Ravens Roost 44.

Thanks.  Jo Ann Elder”

Registration forms and schedule can be found here.
·        Friday, June 3 – Ravens Roost #44 14th Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament.  Once again @ the Ocean Pines Country Club.  The registration fee is only $85 this year so sign up early.  Registration forms and Tee Sign Sponsorship forms are available here.
·        Saturday, June 4 – Let's not forget the Convention Parade!  We need to get a head count on how many women (yes, we'll ALL be women) will be able to march.  I have had a few sign up already but would like to hear from all of you.  Please give me your name, phone number and T-shirt size.  E-mail me at memmray@peoplepc.com or call at 302-539-4623 (this is my REAL number).  Thanks, Marie and parade committee.
·        Saturday, June 11 – Bus trip to Camden Yards to see the Orioles take on Tampa Bay.  Details soon.
·        July 10, – Ravens Roost #44 Annual Summer Picnic @ White Horse Park.  Always a great time.  Details soon!

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
