The best thing since chocolate milk?

F&M guys and gals,

We are planning on ordering some sick jerseys for the team this fall. Scott Salmon worked hard conceiving this design:


The image wraps around the side and onto the back of the jersey. If you're interested in ordering one, send an email to SammyK14@mac.com

Peace, Love, Disc

Guess something else that falls a month from yesterday...

Other than the International Day of Climate Action, silly! In one month, F&M Ultimate will field its first women's alumni (alumnae?) team. This is history, people.

It seems fitting that the tenth anniversary of HIAAP would coincide with the fortieth anniversary of coeducation at F&M, which coincides with the first time Code Blue has had enough graduates to put up a line. We're getting crazy with commemoration here. But ten years of rockin' Ultimate and forty years of women? We aren't commemorating the emergence of a totally awesome sport, nor are we marking equal opportunity education. We're celebrating the first really good parties in Lancaster.

So when Sam says we're excited to field two alumni teams this year at our home tournament, what he means is that we're excited to field three alumni teams this year — a team of older alums, a team of younger alums, and a team of women alums. So ladies, get excited, get in shape, get emailing. Let me know ASAP (jmitche1@fandm.edu) if you are interested in joining the Code Blue Alumna Team at the home tourney in a few weeks!

Guess what falls a month from today?

If you guessed national blueberry popsicle day, unfortunately you're a month off...

But if you guessed the 10th anniversary of F&M's home Ultimate Frisbee tournament, you're correct!!! As stated in the season schedule (below) our annual fall tournament is falling on October 24-25, which also happens to be alumni weekend! We students are hoping for a HUGE turnout so we can field (and school) two alumni teams!

If you're interested in participating in what will undoubtedly be the greatest HIAAP yet, sign up on this spreadsheet (I think you'll need a google account to actually see the spreadsheet, but that only takes a minute). Most importantly, be sure to spread the word! This weekend will be as amazing as you guys make it. We'll be sure to have activities planned for Saturday evening (more on that front later). Keep checking the website for updates on the tournament and Deep and Code Blue's season updates!
