Well, last year we skipped the game because of the cold weather (14 degrees when I left the house) and the frozen turf. Chances are the weather will be better this year! Cross your fingers. I hope you have already checked the web site (www.uscsocceralumni.org) to see that the 6th game is on for next Friday. Since we seem to always have a good number of ball boys and girls I’m thinking we should have a short munchkin’s game this year after we run ourselves into the ground – so bring the kids! Looking forward to seeing you there…Pass it on. If you can’t join us, please consider making a donation and / or buying an alumni shirt. (PayPal buttons and address info on web site) Thanks!

(email) Last year's post-Thanksgiving game was a lot of fun even though it rained on and off through the game. We raised $585.00* for the Cerebral Palsy Foundation ! Please checkout the site for photos, news and alumni practice grey t-shirts: www.uscsocceralumni.org * - Special thanks to Dr. Andy Shimer ('85) who made a $500 donation in honor of his niece who also suffers from mild CP. Andy calculated the cost of airfare, new shoes, meals and extras to come up with what it would have cost him to travel in for the game from Houston, TX.
