Army vs UPenn Tailgate Info for 5/3/08:

The McCallions would like to host the tailgate for after the game on Saturday and will be barbecuing hot dogs and hamburgers for everyone and we are asking that the parents fill in with our usual assortment of salads, heroes, desserts and drinks.  After some investigation of where we can meet, the McCallions have found out that UPenn is hosting a AAU track meet and all parking on campus is going to be reserved for that, so we are planning on meeting in parking lot # 2.  I am going to try and explain where this is:  You have to be on 33rd Street, (it is one-way).  Make the first right after the Franklin Field stadium.  (There should be tennis courts on the opposite corner.)  Follow that road around to the left, and as you approach Walnut Street, parking lot #2 should be on your left side.  This is a city parking lot, so it is $12 for parking.  Rob and Marybeth McCallion are going to try and get there early and pay for and reserve about 20 spots ahead of time.  They are asking that you email Marybeth at mmccallion@rosemontschool.org and let her know that you would like a spot. 

Another clink in the works - there is also a girls' lax game ahead of ours and it seems as though UPenn girls are pretty good and this a pretty big game, so parking may even be more tight than we think.  We are hoping this all works out.  If you need more info, you can call Rob's cell at 610-453-0355.

The only other thing we need are some tables.  If you have a folding table that you can fit in your car or truck, please bring it, and of course some chairs.


 

Home Tailgates-

Tailgates- All home game tailgates will be held at the Kimsey Center for the 2008 Season.
Go to the entrance, take the elevator to the 4th floor and take a right.  We encourage the parents to bring heros, soups, pastas, salads, casseroles, meats (such as pulled pork or chicken) and in the past some parents have even ordered pizza in town to be delivered after the game. Desserts are always welcome and please bring enough drinks for your cadet and your family. Parents can bring crock pots and heating trays, there will be electric to plug into.  We can use the kitchen but only for cleaning up, not for heating any food.

New plebe and yearling parents/families who are joining the tailgates, please pitch in with set-up and clean-up. 

A reminder about tailgate etiquette. 
Parents and guests wait to start eating until the team has been fed. We can start on the appetizers and beverages, but we wait on the main courses.

Finally, Coach Alberici and the USMA Administration request that alcoholic beverages not be consumed at Army Lacrosse tailgates.

Also, we guarantee to our host that we will return the tailgate venue to the condition in which we found it. Please help us clean up after this tailgate so we can honor  our guarantee.  

If you have questions about Army Lax Parents or tailgates, contact Mike and Linda Hanna at Cmish20@aol.com, or call, (516) 541-9123.
