This Saturday, March 15th.  Parade begins at 12pm, we usually gather around 10am at Beach Copy, 5901 Coastal Hwy, to begin the tailgate festivities.  We have 25 marchers signed up so far.  The weather looks promising.  Let’s get together and have some fun!

Scholarship Golf Tournament:

28th Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament

 

The 28th Annual Ravens Roost #44 Scholarship Golf Tournament is scheduled to be held May 30, 2025 at the Ocean Pines Golf Club.

 

This will be a 9:00am shotgun tournament.  We're looking for major sponsors, gift cards, tee sponsors and volunteers the day of the tournament.

 

The mailings for this years tournament went out February 3rd to sponsors, tee sponsors, businesses and some golfers.

 

A big thank you to Anita Satterfield for redoing the cover letter and getting it printed at Beach Copy with our tee sponsor forms , golfers registration forms and envelopes. In addition she stuffed 142 letters & forms for the mailing.

 

Please bring business gift card donations and liquor/beer/wine donations to our upcoming April and May monthly meetings for our silent auction items.

 

We're in need of signature, major and tee sponsors. We will have extra forms at this Thursday's monthly meeting. We will have a sign up list for volunteers at our future meetings too.

Funny Poop

One night, a drunk comes stumbling into a bar and says to the bartender: "Drinks for all on me including you, bartender."

So the bartender follows the mans orders and says: "That will be $36.50 please."

The drunk says he has no money so the bartender slaps him around and throws him out.

The next night the same drunk comes in again and orders a drink for everyone in the bar including the bartender.

Again the bartender follows instructions and again the drunk says he has no money. So the bartender slaps him around and throws him out.

On the third night he comes in, the drunk orders drinks for all except the bartender.

"What, no drink for me?" replies the bartender.

"Oh, no.  You get violent when you drink."

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
