2011 Begins

2011-01-27T11:39:00.001-08:00

Hello All, hope everyone is surving the winter and starting to get ready for the 2011 season. This is just a quick reminder that for those that are returning, we will be cashing your Cheques on Tuesday Feb 1, 2011.

Also the Board is looking for charity(s) to support for 2011 and again are looking to you our members for suggestions. Please forward these to myself along with a short note as to why you feel we should lend our support. We would love to help everyone but we only have so much to spread around.

Looking forward to seeing you all at the opening Stag at the Legion on April 26th.

cheers

BOSL Social Update #2

2010-05-07T07:13:00.000-07:00

Hello Everyone. Well we all should now have our first real game of the season under our belts and the aches and pains are starting. Mother Nature was kind to us for our first set of games, let's hope she stays friendly.

On a serious note, many of our teams\players like to celebrate their victories or drown their sorrows at various watering holes after the games (mainly QB's) but we really need to be careful of how much we celebrate. Our dear friends in Blue are out in full force with RIDE programs and last night they were in the area of QB's. While we do not want to rain on anyone's parade, we do want all of our players, fans and others to be safe and respect the laws of the land and please don't Drink and Drive. When in doubt call a cab or go with a friend. We did have players pulled over last night and thankfully they were within the limits.

Also, look out for flyers and posters for our BOSL MaryJaneWright Memorial Golf Tournament coming up Aug 14, 2010 at Carlisle Golf Club. We are looking for hole sponsers and players. For more information go to www.bosl.ca/golf2010 or contact Steve Moore at stephenmoore1969@gmail.com or myself at wmcspadden@rogers.com

Ok let's play ball.
