    Monday Picnic / Family Day

    We plan every year this day as a day to further enrich friendships and have some fun. Everyone please wear your game jersey, shorts, gray t-shirt (or any gray t), and your BLA helmet and glovers. We plan to take a whole group picture after a group stretch on the steps of Abbott Hall, directly above the Subway entrance. Each team will practice after the pictures. Well start grilling around 7:30. The BLA will provide the hotdogs, buns, chips and drinks. If some parents were able to bring deserts and coordinate the grilling that would be great. We'll have a raffle to continue to raise money for the United Cerebral Palsy of Delaware in care of Colin Zwickert.
