Last Week's Speaker

Our speaker last week was from the Phillies Management. He talked about the impact of the Strike Out Hunger Fundraiser, now in its 22nd year. To date over $600,000 has been raised. The group was also updated on the current state of the ball team and answered questions from members about the Phillies. Thought those baseball fans among this group might enjoy a look at a Phillies fan blog and a few other sundry items related to the team.
