So happy to find you!  My son will be there and I'm in a panic!  The letter with all the info on the days activities was in his fathers house that recently burned.  I have no clue where we are supposed to be and what times!  Can you share that info with me?

We did not get to go...notified too late that he was in Cardinal company. Watched the game but nothing was televised.
