Holy Name/Shield of Faith/neighborhood softball tournament

Once upon a time I drank a little wine.

Actually, it was a whole lot of wine.

By night's end, I reportedly had kissed Mt. Olivet Cemetery director Mark Gracely on the top of his bald head -- and almost everybody else who attended the Holy Name keeping-in-touch party back in March.

The drunken sailor in me still surfaces on the rare occasion when pent-up pressure meets big party with an open bar.

Anyway, I'm still piecing that crazy night together and recently remembered promising several people that I would arrange a Holy Name/Shield of Faith/neighborhood softball tournament at Fletcher Field this summer.

Consider it done: Sunday, August 23, at 2 p.m.

[More:]

At the very least, I would like to put together four teams and play a mini double-elimination tournament -- followed by a barbecue. We'll need at least 40 players to pull this off.

Please get in touch with me via email (mjhappyii@hotmail.com) if you're interested in playing or helping with the planning.
