Call For Ball Players & Coaches
The Lyons youth baseball team for 13 to 14 year olds is looking for at least four additional players so they can form a second team. (They have too many players for one team, and slightly too few to form two teams.) Also, one head coach is needed for the second team, as well as volunteer coaching help for all age levels teams.
No experience is required, just a desire to help kids with basic baseball instruction/skills. If interested in volunteering or having your child play, please sign up with Longmont Baseball League at www.longmontbaseball.org, or call (720) 684-6286.
Spring Cleaning Time in Lyons
It's time to start planning for next month’s annual Lyons community garage sale and the spring cleanup, coordinated by the Sustainable Futures Commission (SFC). The events will be held on consecutive Saturday mornings: the Lyons community garage sale will be held on Saturday, May 12, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Lyons annual spring cleanup day will take place Saturday, May 19, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The purpose of the community wide garage sale is to promote reuse of resources and materials. Hosting or participating in a garage sale is one way to extend the life of useable materials and save (or make) some money in the process.
Mission Impossible
Mission #1, should you choose to accept it: Roust yourself from blissful sleep and a warm bed before the sun rises on a chilly Saturday morning to ride a school bus (though you will be with one of the kindest, coolest school bus drivers on planet Earth, thank you, Mr. Grove) to a facility with fifteen other local track teams, all but three having at least five times your school enrollment (and ranging up to nearly ten times larger in the case of Fairview and Boulder) with many of those schools
Excitement At The Pharmacy, But Open For Business
Late last Thursday morning (April 12) half a dozen government-type SUVs as well as two Boulder County Sheriff's vehicles were congregated in the parking lot behind the St. Vrain Pharmacy. One's first thought had to be, “Oh no, did they get robbed again?” Officials from the Sheriff's Office quickly put that line of reasoning to bed. “This is not a Boulder County Sheriff's operation, we are only here to assist the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency),” was the official response.
