Hi League,

You may be surprised to learn, as I was recently, that technically you need to be a member of the Triwood Community Centre in order to order food and beverages at JT’s Lounge. The reason for this has something to do with their liquor license.
Triwood tells me that it would be a big help to them to have CSMS League guys take out Triwood memberships. They measure the success of what they do, in part, by their membership totals.

Memberships are FREE FREE FREE! So if you are a JT’s regular, why not help out our valued partner by taking a moment to sign up for a FREE membership online. You’ll be helping us further foster our great relationship with a very important component of our league.

Here are 2 Links to help you get signed up for membership.

First is to the Triwood Community Associations main Website:
https://www.triwoodcommunity.com/

And the second is to the membership sign up page:
https://www.amilia.com/store/en/triwoodcommunity/shop/memberships

Select the free 2 year membership and get signed up soon. The access to beer you save may be your own!

Computer / Email Hack

Hi League,

Just an FYI.
A League member has reached out to Say that their email account has been Hacked and fraudulent emails are being sent out and apparently several league members have already received emails from this fraudulent account.

So please do not open any emails with “nradman” anywhere in the email name. If you receive one, be sure to add it to your spam folder.

As always, we all must be diligent when opening emails and never open an attachment unless you are 100% sure of the sender.

Regards,

Paul M

Hi League,

I’ve had a request from Don McKillop. He is looking for a Team Picture taken of the Blue Jays during the 2015 AAA Finals. If anyone has a picture it would be appreciated if you could share it. The Blue jays played the Reds in the Final that year. So if anyone has that picture, you can send it along to myself or Don.

Oh, and the picture shown here is not the Blue Jays !!

And Hey, only 90 Days until our new season gets underway.

Cheers Everyone,

PM
