Two quick announcements for posteritiy's sake. And by posterity, we
mean Sheldon's sanity.

1. Sheldon, amongst others, has worked hard for many years to ensure
that NoHo Ultimate exists, has a field to play on, and has an Internet
presence by which people can find us and join us. He also selflessly
fronts money for this group, and for these things we all owe him our
gratitude and about ten dollars. Ten bucks covers everything we need,
from field access to Internet fees, and if there's any extra cash at
the end, the big guy hides it in a sock and throws us a party. If
you're extra nice to him, he'll wash the sock.

2. As long as we're playing at JFK, which is for the foreseeable
future, we have to be respectful to the rules. These rules are
simple: We are allowed to play there by the Rec department because we
pay for it- but we also are the bottom of the totem pole becasue we are
a pick-up group. What this means is that if there's a baseball game,
we cram in a corner, and don't interfere. Period. We do not argue
with the coaches about this, because they absolutely have the right of
way. If we upset this delicate balance and the coaches complain to the
Rec department, we run the risk of losing the field space. Bad. So be
nice, understand that kids are the future and all that, and make the
best of it.

Sheldon has done his legwork and made his announcements and now it's up
to us to pay him the cash we owe (it's only $10 for a full year of
Ultimate... come on!) and to abide by the rules so we can all have
Ultimate, which we love.

Other than that, SO good! The turnout has been great- we're
consistently over twenty-eight people and have been running two games
simultaneously- and the weather is amazing, so keep coming out! One
love, NoHo!

Whoooooo!
