Membership:

Thanks to all that continue to make Ravens Roost #44 one of the largest and strongest Roosts in the Council!  We are 92 members strong!

Convention:

All convention applications were turned in at the April Council meeting.  You can still sign up for the convention, but you will need to contact the Council and arrange your own application acceptance with your $80 fee, and the late sign ups will not get the souvenir goodie bag.  It’s still a good deal though, to be able to eat and drink for three days and share fellowship with like-minded Ravens fans from all over.

 

 

Parade:

I don’t want to reveal too much about our float in the convention parade, but the convention theme is “Honoring our First Responders”, and we happen to have some particular First Responders joining us that no other Roost can get.  That’s all I’m saying for now, but it’s going to be great.  I hope everyone that is signed up for the convention will march, and if you haven’t, hopefully you’ll cheer us on from the sidelines.

Funny Poop

A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles.  The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him.  He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife.

She directs him down the correct aisle.  A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cottonballs and a ball of string on the counter.

The sales girl says, confused, "Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?"

He answers, "You see, it's like this, yesterday, I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes, and she came back with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers; cause it's so-o-o much cheaper.  So, I figure if I have to roll my own... so does she."

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
