Baseball Banquet

Last night, the North baseball team banquet was held at a nearby neighborhood swimming pool.  It was a perfect night for the event as temps were in the low 80's and there was a light breeze.  The food was supplied by our local grocery store and there was a nice selection of deserts that followed. 

After dinner, the varsity coach did a review of the season and then called up each player to receive their varsity letter.  When JD was called, the coach said that there were giving out an annual award that would go to the team's "Pitcher of the Year" and JD was the first recipient.  He was also presented with his varsity letter and his award for First Team All Conference.  

After the award ceremony, the coaches were presented with the framed posters that Jodi and I did.  One coach told us it was the coolest thing he's ever been given.  I have to admit, they do look pretty cool.

The players got to swim awhile before being treated to a couple videos that showed picture and video highlights of the season.  They were set to music and were very well done.  We all enjoyed watching them and it was the perfect ending to a great night.
