Greetings Silver Hawks Fans!
I wanted to let everyone know that I'll be out and about in the Bend participating in some fun Halloween activities on October 25th and 26th.
On Saturday, October 25th I'll be at the College Football Hall of Fame. There will be free admission to the Hall of Fame and all kinds of fun activities for the kids.
On Sunday, October 26th I'm heading over to the Potawatomi Zoo for the Annual Zoo Boo from 12-4. The Silver Hawks and other booths will be handing out free candy to all the kids.
Hope to see you soon!

2009 Silver Hawks Schedule
Calling all Silver Hawks Fans...
The 2009 Silver Hawks baseball schedule is now finalized and available online at www.silverhawks.com! The season will kickoff with the 2nd Annual Silver vs. Gold exhibition game against the University of Notre Dame Baseball team on April 7th with the regular season home opener on April 13th. It seems so far away, but I'm excited just thinking about it!
Now that the baseball season is over, I've been keeping busy visiting my friends and making new ones. Last week I had the chance to visit the 4th grade class at Twin Branch Elementary School in Mishawaka - the students were helping to decorate the bedroom of one of their classmates who lost everything in a house fire so we stopped by with some great Silver Hawks gear for him. Keep an eye out for me and if you would like me to attend one of your events, be sure to call the Silver Hawks office.
Bye for now...

Rain, Rain Go Away!
Hi Silver Hawks Fans,
As you may know, it was a disappointing end to a great season. The Hawks were back home and ready to face the Burlington Bees in Game 3, but were rained out on both Friday and Saturday. You wouldn't believe all the water on the field by Saturday morning - I was tempted to go for a swim!
Unfortunately, the weather wasn't improving and with the instructional leagues starting up on Monday, there wasn't time to wait around for better weather. The big guy - George Spelius, President of the Midwest League was in town and made the difficult decision to call the playoffs. Since Burlington was leading the series 2-0, they were declared the 2008 Midwest League Champions.
It was still a great season for the Silver Hawks - the guys came a long way from the slow start in April.
The baseball season may be over, but I'm not going anywhere! Swoop has been challenged with the task of keeping all of you updated so I plan to do my best. Make sure to check back regularly!
Rumor has it the 2009 schedule is ready and I plan to get the scoop and find out what plans are in the works!

Eastern Division Champs!
Wow! The Silver Hawks had a great game last night sweeping Dayton thanks to a spectacular 4th inning 3-run homer by Collin Cowgill. The Hawks beat the Dragons 4-3 and will now battle the Burlington Bees for the 2008 Midwest League Championship!
The players were so excited after the win last night and they hopped right on the bus to head to Burlington, IA. They will play games 1 and 2 on the road before heading back to the Cove. We'll play at home on Friday at 6:30 followed by Game 4 (if necessary) at noon on Saturday and Game 5 (if necessary) at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday.
I'm busy spreading the word so we can pack the park and cheer on the Hawks. I heard there is some football game going on in town this weekend, but winning a Midwest League Championship sounds much more exciting to me. Check out www.silverhawks.com or call the front office folks at 574-235-9988 for the latest details.
See you at the Cove!
