CD Orders: For those
that requested photo CDs months ago ... I'm just now starting to catchup on the
flood of news this week and can at least start to think about starting the photo
archive search in the next few days. I can't take any new orders for individuals
now but given the success of the boys baseball team will offer to make a special
CD with all the baseball photos I've taken this year for $10 each if I can
get a baseball parent or coach to handle all the order taking and money collecting.
If not and I have to handle the orders individually they would be $20 each. --

Park
"Closed"
-- TO ALL CITIZENS (From the City of Collinsville 5/13/2010): We
are all getting very anxious about playing on the new equipment in the park. It's
not even complete yet and it looks great! And believe me; no one is more anxious
than we at the city are! However, the park is not open to the public yet. The
contractors are working diligently to make it play-ready, but they can't do their
job effectively or efficiently with cars, people and skateboarders in the way.
It is not safe for the public yet, it is a construction zone with many pieces
of large equipment all over the place. Therefore, the park is closed from this
date forward until such time as the construction is complete and is made safe
for the public. The only people allowed in the park will be softball teams
who must stay on the east end at the softball field. PLEASE
DO NOT GO TO THE PARK AND TRY TO PLAY ON ANY OF THE PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT, SKATE
PARK, BASKETBALL COURT, EQUIPMENT, DIRT PILES, ETC. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND WE
DON'T WANT ANYONE GETTING HURT. We ask that everyone please help
us in this effort. The contractor is on a timeline and is only slowed down by
unwarranted interruptions. The less interruptions, the quicker the work will get
done and the quicker the park will be opened for all our enjoyment. VIOLATERS
WILL BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW |

Baseball Note from Ron Evans:
Ted--I went to Seminole Friday to watch Seminole State baseball play Rose State.
Kevin Phillips (CHS 2008)
plays for Seminole State and his dad and mother (Rick and Karen) were there as
well. Kevin went 3-5 with two home runs and 5 runs batted in. Strangely enough
the pitcher from Rose State was Harrison
Mendez who pitched for C'ville in 2008. Also, Jeremy
Guest (CHS 2007) plays and pitches for Rose State and his dad was there
as well. Good outing for the C'ville fans!!!! Oh, Seminole won the game 13-10.
