Ted,
I was hoping we could put something on our web page about the 6th Annual Josh
Richardson Memorial Softball Tournament. It is being held May 29th and 30th
at the city park. Lots of events for the entire family. Also, I have been in charge
of the umpiring and could use some volunteers to help with the umpiring. I can
be reached on my cell # at 688-0399. Anything you can do will be appreciated.
All proceeds go to the Josh Richardson 3 Sport Athlete Scholarship, which is awarded
to a Collinsville High School Senior. -- Thanks, Rick Phillips [Ted Note:

made yesterday at CHS ... more later]-- 5/19/2009 |
