Convention:

This year’s Ravens Roost Council Convention is Thursday, May 30 thru Sunday, June 2, once again at the Castle in the Sand.  The cost of Registration is once again $70.

 

The convention is a great opportunity to share fellowship with Ravens fans from all over.  Ravens Roost 44 will, as always, have a hospitality suite located at Room 12, ground level, right next to the Castle in the Sand office, for conventioneers to enjoy.

 

You can still participate in the convention, but you will not be getting the goodie bag.  Contact Donna Chaplinski (410-627-7697) for more information.

 

 

Parade:

Convention Parade:

Okay marchers, put on your best 60’s outfit and let’s groove!  It’ll be far out!

 

 

Apparel:

The on-line store is closed.  We will reopen June 1, 2024, with orders to be shipped in July.

Entertainment:

·       Annual Roost 44 picnic Saturday, July 20th from 12 to 5 pm at Moose on Rt 20.  Roost members will pay $12 pp and receive 3 drink tickets for beer only.  Any beer after that is $2.  Non members will pay $20, no drink tickets.  Children 12 and under $10.  We will have the usual hamburgers, hot dogs, Italian sausages and fixings.  Donations of home made salads would be appreciated as well as home made desserts.  Sign up sheet will be set out at April's mtg.

 

·       Still working on next cruise.  Two choices, we have to pick one.  Bermuda out of Baltimore, May 2025 for 7 days or Caribbean 8 days out of Norfolk, May 2025.  I need to know who is going because we have to decide ASAP.  Bermuda trip us nearly full.  We will need initial deposit of $25 per person.

 

·       We have a few choices for away games.  Decisions where to go will be made after schedule is released.

 

·       We will be doing another Duckaneer pirate cruise this summer.  Details soon.

House:

Our permanent meeting host is the American Legion Post 166 located at Coastal Hwy and 23rd streets.

 

Please enter through the handicapped door on the 23rd street north side.  All membership meetings begin at 7:30pm on the second Thursday of each month.  However, all Roost members are invited to arrive early for food and drink specials at reasonable prices - a great place to have dinner before or during the meeting.  The Post only accepts cash for purchases.

 

The only likely changes to the meeting schedule are for an outside summer meeting at our annual family picnic and for a conflict at the post during the October bike week.

 

During football season we are invited to the Post for a game viewing party with the big projection screen along with tailgating food and drinks for sale.

 

Thanks,

Ron

Funny Poop

·       A customer walked into a bar and said, “I’ll have a pint of less, please.”

“Less?” queried the bartender. “What’s that?”

“I don’t know either,” said the customer, “but my doctor told me to drink less.”

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
