Varsity Work Day at Frelinghuysen Field

On Friday, the Varsity team spent well over 2 hours working on sprucing up the area around our field.  They cleared brush, removed trash, cleared off the road leading down to the field from the upper parking lot, cleared the path from the parking lot up to the field and painted the shed!  They worked so hard and it all looks great!  (We also had some fun games during our practice on Friday.)
Here are a few pictures!

Book Keeper Needed for Games

We are looking for an adult to be the official score / book keeper for home games.  We are required by the VPA to have an adult at the scoring table to keep the book.  If you are interested, please let Julie or Barb know!
