Convention:

All money for Convention must be turned in to Donna at April 10th meeting along with application.  You can get application on last month’s Ravens Caw.  No exceptions as I need to have Sandy write check for all applications to go to Councils April meeting.  If you decide to go after our deadline, you must contact Council and arrange your own application acceptance with your $80 fee.  Sign up sheets will still be available at the April meeting, but they must be turned in at the April Council meeting.

 

Parade:

Ok Conventioneers, we’re gearing up for our next parade, the Council of Ravens Roosts Convention parade.  While you can participate in the parade, 75% of the participants must be signed up for the convention.  So the easy thing would be to sign up for the convention, then, no worries!  The parade is going to be epic!

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
