The 11-12 year olds, including my great-nephew Gavan Meade, went to Newport News this past weekend for the state tournament.
This is not the 1st time Clintwood had gone to the tourny but it is the 1st time they won a game. In fact, they made it to the final 8!
They were up against many metro areas which have a huge pool of boys to choose their all-stars. Clintwood only had about 20 boys. They took 12 to the tourny and 1 of those boys got sick.
My sister, Sheila, and I went and had a blast! The boys played great ball and finally lost to West Springfield. This team eventually won it all and are on their way to FL for the regional tourny.
Just wanted all of you to know that I look forward to seeing all of you at the class reunion. I think it's great to combine the classes. Hopefully we will have a lot of people there. See ya in October...
Just wanted to let you know I've put a link to this board on the Clintwood Connection. If you ever put up any links here I'd appreciate one back to the Clintwood Connection. Thanks, and I wish you success with your forum here and to all in the classes of '74 and '75.
For those who may not know, the Clintwood Connection can be found at http://www.network54.com/Forum/4481 so drop in anytime.
Well, we def. need 70's since that was our time. I have been under the weather. Had surgery last week on my foot and am just now out and trying to function outside of bed, I'll try to think of things and get back with you! Who is the DJ?
My son Aaron and his wife Lisa had a girl on June 2. Her name is Rebecca Faith. She weighed 6 ibs, 10 oz. They say she looks a lot like her grandpa, but they are also hoping she will grow out of that. Ha. Hope to see all at the reunion and will have pictures.
