OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH:
As we have had 2 mothers on our team affected with breast cancer over the last few years, this disease hits very close to home with our boys.  Marina Mancilla is once again donating the pink ribbon vinyls to put on the boys' helmets (should have them by Thursday) and we have pink breast cancer football socks (also being donated) that will hopefully arrive on Friday.  

We are asking all of the families to wear PINK or any type of pink ribbon wear to honor the kick-off of this month on Saturday's game.   

SATURDAY's GAME (10/4/14) vs. Westlake:
Walden Park, 4337 N. Frontier St. Eagle Mountain

This is our furthest venue in Eagle Mountain so please plan accordingly.

We are the VISITING TEAM.

*FYI, I know Gatorade can be pricey so I was happy to find a concentrated powder of it at Costco for about $10.  It makes 36 quarts so it should last a while.  Brando has been throwing it into his water jugs this week and he really likes it.

I'm volunteering bright and early Sat morning at The Color Run in SLC so I won't be able to field any calls or texts until after about 11:00 am.   

See you Saturday!

GO BRAVES!!
