Super Bowl – 6th – 8th is Friday 10/21 at Freedom. All other divisions will be at Andrew beginning at 9am and the final game beginning at 4:30pm. I’m looking into climbing wall or other obstacle inflatables. If people have ideas on this let me know. I’m handling the trophies and will talk to Brandi about what we do for Pizza. We will do a punt pass kick competition as well, wanted to host one through the NFL but that didn’t work out.
Ratings – going to ask the coaches to do ratings before the last game. I’ll say you need to do this in order to get your trophies. This will help for future drafts.
Indoor Winter Program – Jon can update you on any conversations he had with Roma. Eric Macleod, my league rep for 4th – 5th knows someone that helps run that facility, so we can use him as a resource as well.
Pro Bowl – was thinking about doing an “All Star” game after the season where coaches would coach and ref this game. Assuming 6 teams, perhaps 2-3 from each team. There would be no incremental cost this year, but we could look into doing something of an All Star game with shirts, etc. in future years if this trial year goes well. Let me know if you have any feedback on this.

What is the limit for pizza party so I can tell the coaches when I announce the winners?
Cancer walk: we reached over our goal of raising $1000.00 which is awesome! I have extra shirts I’ll be selling at games, with all proceeds going to Making Strides.
