Re: 2007 Philly Regional
Rich Kressley's right (as usual), the Ghanaians are part of our team. As we like to say, we're both American and African, all-girls and co-ed.
We're taking their team in a new direction next year....

Thanks, Bri.

Couldn't agree with you more, Freddy. I LOVE the Philly regional and can't wait for it this year! The 433 Firebirds will, as usual, be in attendance.
