E-mail - 9/6/12

Hello Parents and Grandparents,


I apologize for not getting an e-mail out before now. I spent part of last week in Durham with my dad who was supposed to have a kidney transplant. Once they opened him up they found that he was not a viable candidate and were not able to do the transplant. He came home last Friday and I am slowly getting back into the swing of things.

Thomas asked me to send your guys an e-mail this AM. There are a-lot things we need to cover.

Practice Change for today!!!!!!

Today's Practice location has changed..... We will be at Hornbeam Park instead of Englewood Park.

Thomas tried to call everyone last night and had to leave messages for 2 of you. The city has soccer games scheduled on the fields at Englewood so they called late yesterday and moved us to Hornbeam. We will practice at the same time we were originally scheduled to practice 5:30-7:00PM.

The physical address for the park is 150 Cunningham Dr for those of you that don't know where the park is and may have GPS.

From Nashville: you can come in 64 and take the hospital exit, turn Left and follow the new Thomas A Betts hwy until you get to Goldrock Road. Turn Rt onto Goldrock Rd. You will pass a church on your right and there will be an old Pizza Hut on your left Turn Left onto Cunningham and follow it all the way down to the park. It is in the back of the High Meadows subdivision.

From Roanoke Rapids: Come in 95 to Goldrock Road. then follow bold directions above (you will be coming in the same directions)

Feel free to call if you don't understand the directions or need them from another location.


Schedules:
I have a schedule and some of you may have a copy however, it is my understanding that the schedule may have been revised and I may not have the proper one. (the one I have should have been revised and doesn't look right) I will get one out to you as soon as I have confirmation that the one I have is correct.

Friday Night Game:
On the schedule that I have ... We have a double header this Friday. We will play the team we scrimmaged this past Tuesday for the first game on field 2 @ 5:30. After that we will face the D'Backs on field 3 @ 7:15.

****** Note: Please try to make sure your guys get something light to eat before the game. It will be hot and heavy meals can slow them down and make them sick. Please avoid milk, shakes and Ice cream products. The concession stand at the field usually has pizza and chick-fil-a sandwiches if you are interested. With 2 games I am sure they will get hungry before 9PM if they don't eat before the games.


Snacks: I think Mrs. Edwards spoke to me about snack a list. If you are interested in providing snacks for the boys we have 5 weeks to cover and 7 games. I am not sure that we will need 2 snacks on the nights we have 2 games but if we have enough volunteers we can certainly do that. I think my first game is covered but we have 2 games Friday night. If you are the parent that said you would do the snacks this Friday please let me know so that I will know for sure that it is covered. If you are interested in providing snacks or drinks please let me know. I will try to have a sign up sheet for the rest of the games on Friday night.


Facebook Requests:
For those of you who use Facebook, If I am not already friends with you, you should have gotten a friend request from me today. If you didn't it was because I couldn't find your e-mail address. Please send me a request at HBaileyECU@aol.com (I am not sure if my gmail address will come up)

Thomas has not sent any friend request out but you should be able to find him at UNCkidd@gmail.com if you are interested

Score book:
If you have experience keeping a score book and you are not already helping coach please let me know. If you don't know how to keep one but are interested I will be willing to teach you how. I am always looking for help in this area. With a potty training 3 year old it is difficult to keep a score book. I need someone that can either relieve me when I need to take him to the restroom or can help me get him to the potty when he needs to go. You will find I have to keep a pretty tight reign on Toby. He is pretty active.

Also, We will be out of town on Wed 9/19- Sun 9/23. I will need someone to keep the book for the game on 9/21.

Scoreboard:
Anytime we are home team we are responsible for keeping the scoreboard up. I can't do this, watch Toby and keep the score book. Anyone that wants to jump in there for us will be much appreciated. It isn't hard to do and usually siblings have a great time doing it.



If you need me before or during the game you can usually find me behind the backstop sitting beside a red wagon. (I sit there so that I can hear balls and strikes when the kids are pitching)

TXT Messages:
I will be setting up a group txt on mine and Thomas's phones today. You should get a test message from each of us sometime today. Please let me know if you don't get one or if you would prefer not to receive txt messages.



I am sorry this e-mail was so long. Hopefully all communications from here will be short and to the point.



Thank-you guys for all that you do and for being our loyal parents. Your patience and support are greatly appreciated. We will continue to take care of your children, treat them as our own and.... hopefully learn a little baseball along the way.   -Heather Bailey
