CONROSE FUNDRAISER 50/50 DRAW

Included in our registration, this year, will be 20 tickets, which are part of a fundraising event, a 50/50 draw.  The cost of each ticket is $1.00.   The winner is guaranteed at least $1000.00.  The more tickets sold, the larger the winning amount will be.

Once registration is received your tickets will be sent to you.  If you register by mail, the tickets will be sent back to you by mail. If registration is done in person you will be given the tickets at that time.  You then have the choice to sell them, or keep them for yourself.   All tickets will have to be back to us by June 5th as the draw will take place at the auction on June 12th.

If you have any questions you can contact Peter Perry at fundraising@conrosebaseball.com

WELCOME TO ANOTHER GREAT SEASON

It’s hard to believe that we are starting the 2009 baseball season with all the snow on the ground.  Before you know it we will all be on the ball field again.  We would like to bring a few things to your attention.  One is registration.  We strongly recommend that you register as soon as you can.  No spots are kept open for past players and there is only a limited amount of players on each team.   The second thing is fundraising.  You will notice that we have added a 50/50 draw to this year’s registration.  Please help us make this fundraiser a huge success and remember that the more tickets we sell the more money the winner will take home.  We will also be having some prizes for the players who sell the most tickets. There will be more information on this to follow.

Also, if you have any uniforms at home, please return them to us as soon as possible. 

We hope all of you are as excited as we are about our 2009 season.  Over the last few years, we have watched Conrose grow and have seen great changes and we see no reason why this year won’t be the same. Thank you for making Conrose the great association that it is and we look forward to seeing everyone back this year. 

If anyone has any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact us.  

Here’s to another great year at Conrose!! See you all at the ball field! 

Linda and Tim

 

UMPIRE CLINIC
