-Summer Parking:
Car pooling is always helpful for teams getting to and coming from games. With make-up games and other park events on the horizon, It will be especially important to car pool on the following days and locations:
-Wed 7/9 at Highland Park & Crittenden (Rib Fest Setup & Triple Headers)
-Thu 7/10 at Crittenden Park (Additional Field usage due to Rib Fest at Highland)
-Tue 7/15 at Highland & Crittenden (Triple Headers)
-Wed 7/16 at Highland & Crittenden (Triple Headers)
-Tue 7/22 at Highland & Crittenden (Triple Headers)
-Fri 7/25 - Some games at Ellison (due to Ten Ugly Men Setup) (no parking concerns)
August - All days at Crittenden, we'll be sharing fields with a pop-warner football league, while we don't expect parking to be an issue, it's still best to carpool whenever possible.

Summer Season Reminders:
Please car pool whenever possible. Never leave valuables in plain sight or in your car when you're parked. Please do not park on the grass. No glass bottles at the fields or in the parking lots. All parks and field locations are carry-in/carry out. As you enter and exit the parks, please do so carefully and slowly. Children and pets may be present at the games, we could all do without additional potholes and gravel dust at some park locations. As we're now slowly losing daylight, on nights with triple headers it's important to arrive on time so that games can begin and end on time. 

Ten Ugly Men Festival:
Registration for the Ten Ugly Men Kickball Tournament ends at 8pm tonight(7/9). The tournament is being held on Saturday, July 26th at Genesee Valley Park; the 25th anniversary of the festival. Cost per person as been reduced greatly. If your team is eliminated in it's first two games of the tournament(double elimination), your team automatically gets entered into the Super Kickball game at the festival on an individual basis.Our goal to maximize your time enjoying the music, sampling the refreshing beverages, hitting up the slip-n-slide, kicking some balls, and having some all around fun. At the time this e-mail was sent, only 2 team spots remained.

Super Kickball game at Ten Ugly Men:
It's two teams (Red versus Blue) in a "play until you get out" kickball game. We're starting with around 40 people once the first two rounds of the tournament have completed. The game plays on until the final 12 players, where the slate is wiped clean and the 7 inning championship game begins. Every 4 innings is a mandatory challenge, where the winning team gets to bring back a player who was previously out. Bring your lawn chairs, canopies, and challenge game ideas. The cost for this is $5, which includes your t-shirt (on top of your $25 Festival ticket; $30 total) Your appropriate size t-shirt can be ordered by July 17th online at our website. Teams coming over from the tournament will utilize Red & Blue pinnies. At this point you'll have 2 chances to get out, if we hit 100 total we'll bring that down to 1 chance(on top of the available challenge wins to get you and your teammates back in for 1 additional chance). All other KLOR rules apply. Online registrants will be able to pick up their festival entry ticket with a photo ID at the festival entrance on the day of the event (from 9:30am - 10:30am only). Game starts at approximately10:45am. Check In/T-Shirt Pick up starts at 9:30am up until the game begins. Reply back with your questions and we hope to see you and whole mess of people there. Free parking is available in the U of R lot (off Kendrick) closest to Moore Rd fields.

Summer Playoffs:
Summer Playoffs begin the week of August 11th - spanning two weeks. The top 16 teams (top 8 from each division will advance to playoffs). Finals standings/seeds will be posted on the playoff brackets just before the end of the regular season. Teams are seeded by Win Percentage first, with tie breakers in the order of Head to Head, RA, then RF. Teams still in playoffs after those two weeks advance to the Tournament of Champions on the morning of Saturday August 23rd, immediately followed by the Summer Pub Crawl 

Summer Pub Crawl:
Saturday August 23rd is the Summer Pub Crawl. Plan to be available for this free event as we hit up Park Ave and Monroe Ave ending the season in good fashion and benefiting the Rochester City School District with a school supplies drive and additional raffle(s) benefiting CURE Cancer Association. Wear your Summer '14 T-shirt to be eligible for free raffle prizes at every stop. This is usually a 2pm (till) event.
