Baseball:
Mary Flood is getting a group of MWABA members and MWABA wannabes together to go to a Nationals game. They are playing the KC Royals on Tuesday, September 24 at 6:45 PM. You can go on the MLB tickets website and click on Tuesday Deals and Steals. Then scroll to the game on the 24th and decide how many you want. Mary is sitting in Section 236, if you want to sit in the same section. Make sure you look at the list of policies of the park before you go if you’ve never been there. They are pretty strict with what they allow you to take in and the sizes it has to be. If you have any questions, email Mary at camflood1.
See you out there!

Sports and fun for everyone!
