Useless information? That hurts :p

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

If we submitted our name for volunteering, when will we find out if we got the job, or any job for that matter?

I sent my info to Mrs. Beatty

I must admit, that the city and surrounding area is beautiful and if your a water baby you'll also like the harbor and downtown. I visited the national aquarium last weekend the with needel family and i loved it! I'm going to see if i am available to come down for this event.

Looks like I won't be able to make the Battle O' Baltimore this year. :(
Family party calls my name, and I certainly can't deny a party. lol

Hope everyone has a great time!

Woo 2199.

We're starting summer meetings to prepare for this soon. We should have a decent representation down there. Hopefully this will get the BAA more attention and open up opportunities for similar activities.

im trying to talk my team into coming to this one. we liv ein richmond VA, so its not too far. one day of competition only? how many matches can we expect?

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

It does not look like my team will be able to make it :( But I will be there =D I cannot wait!!! It appears this even is going to be quite fun :)

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

Has anyone heard from 1610 as far as registration goes? Our lead teacher said she was going to register us for this...but so far I haven't heard anything
(and I have folks up that way, a cheap place to stay).

If not I guess I'll be making a phone call.

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

1923 doesn't have enough people in town over the summer to make this trip, but as far as I know, I'll be there! Looking forward to volunteering, this sounds like a really great event!

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

Libby, let's join forces! Together, you and I can get enough people from our teams to get us BOTH down there =] Gracious Professionalism right there :cool:

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

With about a month to go and only 11/24 teams registered(that i know of), I starting to wonder what will happen if there aren't enough teams. Will this event still take place regardless of the number of teams attending? Are there enough teams currently registered to do this?

Re: Battle O' Baltimore-August 11
 

We have 12 teams registered with 3 more that have checks in the mail! There is strong interest from 4 or 5 more teams that want to come! there have also been inquiries from 4 or 5 more teams! I believe we will have almost a full house for our first off-season event.

The event will definitely be a go even if we only have the 12 teams registered to this point. We have the financing guaranteed, the location locked in, the playing field reserved and everything ready for your enjoyment. If you are intrerested please contact me at: bbruneau@bcps.org.

We plan on running 24 qualification matches and if we have 24 registered teams we should each get 6 qualification matches and then the finals in the afternoon. We have also decided to open the field for practice in the evening on friday the 10th. If you are planning on staying in a hotel on friday night prior to the Battle and would like assistance please contact me as well and I will forward your info to our accomodations volunteer!
