I know the team has a horrible track record of giving us notice for events, but I think one of the best ways we can grow our numbers, show better support for the team and players, and raise the profile of the team is to try to make a semi-organized appearance at some of these events the team holds around town. If anyone knows of a team event, post it here. The better notice we get, the better chance they have some turnout. This one looks too hilarious to pass up. I think I'm going to make this one, Aunt Jemima chants in hand.
Yeah I know the timing is bad for a lot of people with real jobs. I put this more up here because I think if we had a schedule of team events and made it a priority to support team community events, it would make us stronger as group, and get Wizards sponsors to feel like their support of the Wizards is worth their money.
Sweet. I think Kathie might be there as well. I wonder if they're going to let random fans swim in the syrup?
Just so everyone is clear, this is next Monday the 21st not tomorrow. Just warning you because normally we get about 48 hours notice on this stuff. Maybe the Cauldron could make a donation of school supplies as well for the event? I'll probably take some stuff out there.
wait.....i dont work on mondays...who wants to come see lance in wt goop with me. cait...come one....just this once..
UMMM>I'LL BRING MY BIKINI....Ahhh. It'll be great...please please. i sure hope they do...i guess there will be a few of us there. anyone know if we're gonna bring anything or whatnot?
I completely forgot about this event. Kathie sent out an email that made it seem like she had a good time. Hopefully she'll post about it.
Why sure, Jeff, I'd love to! : ) It was pretty fun....Scrappy whimped out but Tyson and Ryan went in...Ryan even went in again for a rematch against Stacy - a fan that got more coins than he did...they tried to get Jason in, but he didn't go...it wasn't a very big event...a handful of people there....but several tv crews and newspaper photographers...they almost outnumbered the people there to see it. And yes I took lots of pictures of the sweet event...once I get home, I'll work on them and post em online (provided the site lets me, it's been giving me grief again). But yeah, it was good, if nothing else, to see Wizards players out and about in the commuity!
they asked if i wanted to get in after the event...i would have participated in the event itself but i'm not about to get in there without a change of clothes after the event has taken place....especially after three people have been in it, not that sanitary if you ask me
Here's some pictures of the event today....gotta great shot...I think you'll be able to tell which one I'm talking about! http://thecauldron.multiply.com/photos/album/25
Here's a new one today. Meet A Pair Of Wizards Kansas City fans will get a great chance to meet a pair of Wizards this Wednesday, September 6th, at Soccer Master in Overland Park. Wizards' Generation players Ryan Pore and Will John will be on hand from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. to sign autographs and greet fans at Soccer Master located at 9013 Metcalf in Overland Park.
Are people planning on making the Leukemia and Lymphoma fundraiser at Coaches on Tuesday? I'm going to go for a bit early, then after the HASF meeting come back again. Wizards players will be slinging drinks - sounds like a lot of fun.
I'm gonna try to make it to this one, but with Beth leaving town on business Wednesday morning it might be tough.
Just so everyone is on the same page, this is not the original location but rather at: 14893 Metcalf Avenue, Overland Park, KS 66223 A map is available here. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=14893+Metcalf+Avenue,+Overland+Park,+KS+66223&ie=UTF8&z=15&om=1&iwloc=A
The Cauldron showed up pretty well I thought to that event. They did give us a reason to drink together. Maybe that's what some of the other events are lacking.
