Ravens Roost #4 descended on Ocean City from May 29th through June 1st for the 2008 Council of Baltimore Ravens Roosts Convention.  The weather was great again this year!  Sun was soaked-up and suds were slurped by all at the beach.

Thanks to the following people for their time and effort in preparation for and during the convention:

  • Roost #4 Float - A huge thanks goes out to Joe "The Float Guy" Marciano for once again coordinating the float and pulling the whole thing together.  Thanks to Kathy Marciano for giving Joe a long leash and driving in the parade!  Thanks to the following volunteers that helped with the conception and construction of the float:  Frosty & Ann Volmer, Bob Caldwell, Mandy Young, Kathy & Joe Marciano, and anyone I missed!  Roost #4 was awarded the "Presidents Award" for displaying the most Roost spirit in the parade.

  • Karaoke - Thanks again to Katie Pearl for representing Roost #4 in the karaoke and taking home the 2nd Place prize!  If only we could get some male judges on the panel!

  • Horseshoes - Thanks to the Roost #4 team: Gary Eikenberg and Ed Powers for representing Roost #4 in horseshoes this year!  It was a short day, but thanks for participating!

  • Putt Putt Golf - Thanks to duffers Patti Bolin and Beth Adams for representing Roost #4 in the miniature golf tournament!  Friday mornings are tough out on those links!

  • Co-ed Volleyball - Congrats to the Roost #4 Co-ed Volleyball Team for winning their 1st two matches before running out of gas in the 3rd.  The team included Amy & Geoff Lakis, Patti Bolin, Liam & Katie Pearl, & Mitch Hooper. 

  • Dunk Tank - Roost #4 volunteered to coordinate the Dunk Tank for the Council on Friday & Saturday.  Thanks to Frosty for coordinating the tank and working all of the shifts!!!  Thanks to Anna, Amy, Geoff, Steve, Stevie, Mitch, and everyone else who pitched-in for awhile chasing balls and helping Frosty! 

Thanks also to the Baltimore Ravens that took time from their busy schedules and joined the Roosts in Ocean City for the weekend - Jason Brown, Adam Terry, Mike Kracalik, Dwan Edwards, and former-Raven Edwin Mulitalo!
