When calling to make a reservation for the Fairfield Inn in Burlington, Iowa, please let the person you are speaking with know that:

1. The reservation is held under “Judy Frewin”. There has been some confusion, you must give Judy’s name first.
2. The company name is “Springfield Glendale Parents”.
3. That you want to hold your room with your credit card.

Uniforms will be distributed at practice today. If anyone complains about the red kits being too snug, keep in mind that form-fitting uniforms are the wave of the future. Besides, there is less uniform for someone to grab.

If you complain too loudly, Coach Rogers might give serious consideration to some throwback uniforms like those sported by The Caribous of Colorado. Wikipedia notes that:

The lasting legacy of the Caribous is one of the most unique and infamous uniforms in soccer history. Going with a western-style motif, the players wore brown and tan jerseys that included a strip of leather fringe across the chest.

You ladies would certainly be stylin’ in your cowgirl kits, especially if they were Columbia Blue & Red instead of ugly brown.
