GM's Beginning of the Month Report, April 30: Sunrise is at 5:54am and sunset is at 10:00pm for over 16 hours of sunlight We had a snowstorm on Friday April 25th that dumped about 8" of snow, very unusual. The snow has just about disappeared with temperatures around 50. This sets back the start of Palmer and Colony High Schools using the field for about a week until it dries out. First game is scheduled for Saturday May 10. Thirty NCOs from the current leadership class at Elmendorf Air Force base will be volunteering at the field on Saturday May 3rd, helping clean up the grounds and buildings. This will be the sixth year they have come out. The Grand Slam Raffle on April 26th was a success and everyone seemed to have a good time. There were about 500 in attendance. The Colony High School baseball team helped set-up the tables and chairs Friday night and the Palmer High Scool baseball team came out Saturday night to work in the kitchen, work the 50/50 and breakdown and store the tables and chairs after the event. Thanks to all the volunteers for cooking and cleaning up Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Couldn't do it without you. We've had to make some roster changes due to injuries, which is not uncommon this time of the year A decision on the hiring of the fourth coach should be done in the next few days. That's it for now.
