Clarinda A's Alumni Day to Honor 1981 NBC National Champions

In honor of the 1981 Clarinda A’s National Championship, the board has set Saturday, July 2 as Alumni Day with special emphasis on getting as many of the 1981 team here as possible.       

There will be introduction of all alumni attending that night as well as an alumni game at 5:00 prior to the A’s game with Carroll. 

Will be sending out letters to the 81 team and would appreciate if all alumnus would contact their former teammates as we know we have lost track of some of you.

Please RSVP to m.eberly @ mchsi.com or to the team website so we will know how many to plan on.

Hope to hear from many of you soon – the last alumni game was a lot of fun and much reminiscing was done during that time.

The A’s baseball clinic for kids in grades K-8th has been scheduled.  It will be May 26th and 27th from 4:30-6:30 and May 28th from 9:30-12:00.  The cost for the clinic will be $25.00.  You can pick up registration forms at the Lied Center, which is where you return them in care of Dave Kettwick.  This is a great opportunity for your child to get instruction from young men that have lots of baseball knowledge.  The clinic is also open to girls
