Just a reminder of the RMBA "Deals on the Field" Giant Yard Sale on June 26, 2010 from 9 to 3 at Riverside Baseball Park. The outfield of Riverside Baseball Park at 6865 Ontario Street will be transformed into a huge garage sale for all types of unwanted items- electronics, children's items, furniture, appliances, and yes, sporting goods.

Concessions will also be available- hotdogs, hamburgers, pop, water, chips, popcorn, and other ball park fare! Each RMBA travel team will have a fund-raising table for their team, as will the RMBA Umpires and other Association programs.

Tables are still available! You keep 100% of your profits! Just rent the tables from us for $20 each, or bring your own table and just rent the space for $15. Each space is 12' long. Vendors and businesses of all types are also welcome.

Take this opportunity to clean out you basement or garage and raise a little money for your summer vacation! Spend the day in the sun with other RMBA friends and families and help support Windsor's premier baseball association.

Fliers and entry forms for the event are attached to this email. Please share them with all your friends and co-workers.

For more information or to reserve your space today, please email or call Lyn Bain at 519-564-2246. Thanks, hope to see you there!  Lyn Bain Riverside Minor Baseball.

(Windsor) Earlier today from the Mayor’s Office, Windsor Mayor Eddie Francis announced that the City of Windsor will be leading a project to have fans from the local area autograph a Memorial Cup Bid Banner Jersey in support of the Windsor Spitfires 2011 MasterCard Memorial Cup Bid. The banner will be available for fans to sign starting on Monday April 5th at the WFCU Centre, at the Windsor Spitfires’ 7:05 pm playoff home game versus the Plymouth Whalers.

“When we make our presentation to the Canadian Hockey League on April 14th, we want to show them that the entire community is behind this bid,” said Mayor Eddie Francis.” “ We have a winning facility, a winning team, and a great city, and I encourage everyone to sign this jersey to show their support and demonstrate to the selection committee that Windsor is the obvious choice to host the MasterCard Memorial Cup in 2011,” added Mayor Francis.

Selected schools from the Windsor-Essex Catholic School Board and the Greater Essex County District School Board will also participate in the project. The project will be conducted over a four-day span, starting on Tuesday, April 6th until Friday, April 9th. Banner Sign Company, a Canadian owned company will be producing the banner jersey to assist with this initiative.

The City of Windsor encourages residents within the Windsor and Essex County area attending the Spitfires game on April 5th in supporting this initiative to further the City of Windsor’s efforts in securing the 2011 MasterCard Memorial Cup.
