Hi all, we have an opportunity to attend the Lake Monster's Special Olympics Night for a special price of $8.00. Our Chittenden Program will receive $4.00 for each ticket sold. To get this price, you have to order tickets on-line. I am willing to pre-order a bunch of tickets for those who want to sit together. You
will have to pay me the $8.00 or you can buy on-line but you may not be sitting near friends. I plan on ordering tickets Monday evening so let me know by 4:00 PM. Call (802-865-3840) or email (dbogdan@ieee.org) to let me know that you want to get your ticket through me. The link to buy tickets on your own is here:

The Bocce Competition will be on Sunday, May 21st, tentative check-in at 1:30 PM at the Collins Perley Sports and Fitness Center in St. Albans.

The Basketball Competition will be Saturday, June 10th tentative check-in at 9:00 AM at various Rutland City Schools. Teams will be assigned a division and divisions will be assigned a school. There will be a Healthy Athlete with Open Eyes (free eye exam) at one of the schools and teams will be encouraged to go visit.
