I just spoke with Jerry Brooks. He has the year-end DVD complete and ready for sale. They are $10 each and contain the game vs. the Saints; the playoff game vs. the Cowboys; the Clinton Christmas Parade; trophy presentation and .... THE YEAR-END HIGHLIGHT REEL!
If you've never see what Jerry can do with that, then you are missing the boat! Take a look at the attached link from 2007. It's our championship game, but just after the 12 minute mark or so, you can see what he did last year!!

Jerry can be reached at 601-260-7523 (cell) or 601-925-5939 (home).
PS: Thanks again for the plaques. They're awesome!

CLARIFICATION!
Sorry, guys. I was wrong about the party after the parade! The party will be held at 308 E. College Street (just a couple of doors from The Vineyard). So, after the parade, the parents can simply go to the home and wait for us to get there. Shouldn't take us long to walk from the gym to the house. Thanks!

XMAS PARADE: PS
Please make sure your COLT wears their white jersey with some sort of long-sleeve shirt underneath. No shorts. Jeans or other long pants only. It should be too cold to have just shorts and/or jersey alone!!!!

Christmas Parade: UPDATE!
OK, guys…. Here’s the update on our upcoming Christmas Parade!
First, Tre’ Spencer’s dad has our truck and trailer available. BUT: we need a fully-charged car battery to charge the lights for the float. Can anybody provide this in order to keep me from buying one??? If so, please call me on my cell (601-842-1385)!
The floats will be lined up on FAIRMONT STREET starting at 4:00pm. Fairmont Street is directly behind the new Kroger and directly across from the Baptist Healthplex on Springridge Parkway. We have spot #30. You should find us easily.
Have your COLT at the float around 4pm as we begin the process of moving out around 4:30 or so. Leave them with us and then you can get a spot along the parade route to watch us! It would be awesome if the parents could sit somewhere near each other!
The parade route will be as follows:
Around 4:30-5:00pm: Floats pull out of Fairmont Street and make their way north to COLLEGE STREET.
Left on COLLEGE STREET (in front of First Baptist Church).
Right on MONROE STREET (beside First Baptist Church).
Left on the corner at the Clinton Police Station.
Left on the Brick Streets in downtown Clinton.
Ends at the round MC Gymnasium. We will be in the big parking lots next to the gym.
Afterwards, we will all make our way to Old Vineyard neighborhood (within 5 miles of that spot) to have a gathering at Tre’s home. Benji and I will ensure that we stay with all COLTS until the parents have arrived to “claim them”!
PS: Jerry Brooks, our team video guru, is welcome to ride with us to get any footage that he wants. More soon!

COLT Team Update: Nov. 22, 2008
Guys, we have a team invitation to go to Tre' Spencer's home immediately after the Christmas Parade on December 6th. The place will be in Old Vineyard (very close to where the parade route ends). We will have surprises for the boys.
More details soon about when and where to arrive for the parade. In the interim, please block off the hour after our parade for our end-of-the-year get-together, OK?
More soon! Keep checking between now and the beginning of December for details!

Thanks To Everyone!
Well, I sure wish the season would have ended on a better note. But, I am super-proud of these young men, and even more proud to be called one of their coaches. On behalf of Benji Barham, let me say that we really appreciate you parents allowing us to be part of their lives. They are all special to me.
See you at the Christmas Parade!
See you at the Christmas Parade!
Thursday Game Is STILL ON
We ARE playing tonight. Just got back from the fields. You may want to have your Colt wear long sleeves under his jersey. See you at 6:30pm!
