News and notes (in no particular order): Please remember all games start 30 minutes earlier again this week (and for the remainder of the season). The final week of the regular season is upon us.  Rejoice!  The third phase of our kickball season is about to begin...the playoffs.  It's going to be fun. Please continue to put your best refs forward. The folks from Girls w/LSE continue to accept donations in support of Andrew (look for them at GOTW).  They play at Hobbs around 6:30 and will be there for most of the evening if you'd rather not wait until GOTW. I think the Hobbs bathrooms will be operable by this Sunday. We will seed and post the playoff brackets early so people know where they will be playing/reffing.  During the playoffs we will only be using six fields per week, four of which have lights. Please keep recycling those cans.  We are collectively doing some good work. There have already been three new teams expressing interest in next year. We have plenty of unsullied kballs (blue, red, orange, yellow) to sell, if you have want/need.  We will be selling t-shirts, pint glasses, stickers, and balls at the year end party (date/place/time TBD).  Cottin's Hardware & Rental carries much of what we sell: 1832 Massachusetts, 785.843.2981 (Thanks Linda and Tom!). Please continue to clean up after yourselves at ALL FIELDS. There have been whispers of a 3rd annual post-post season tournament.  Still undetermined. Looks like the heat will return this weekend.  The forecast for Sunday is 94-96 degrees and breezy.  Please make hydration a priority. To all of our kickball comrades who've left before season's end, you'll be missed. Enjoy your kickball weekend. Thanks!  Deron
