So, what's on my mind today? Apparently it's All Stars, baseball and softball. This post is just for info purposes and some thoughts regarding the upcoming tournaments.
Beginning June 21, Jena will host the District 8 10U Baseball and District 7 10U Softball All Stars tournaments. So what does that mean? A LOT of extra folks "galavanting" all over Jena. The boys tournament may have around 11 teams. The girls tournament may have 5 or so teams. Think a total of 16 teams, about 12 players per team, so close to 200 players. Those 200 players will have parents, siblings, grandparents, and faithful fans making the trip to Jena. I call this an OPPORTUNITY!
For nearly 30 years, I've chased a white or yellow ball around in the summer. I've been a parent, a grand parent, and a faithful fan. So, I have learned a little bit through the years. When those games are over, EVERYBODY is hot and tired. They want to be somewhere cool. Nine times out of ten, they are hungry and would like to eat something besides ballpark cuisine. If you are a restaurant, food truck, convenience store that serves food, etc., this is a great opportunity for you.
Friday and Saturday will draw the larger crowds. At times on weekends, it is "slim pickins'" for places to eat, especially later in the evenings. Some games won't even start until 8pm, so they likely won't end until 9:30 or after. I know that's late, but any places that are open later, put it on your signs!
It is a possibility that some people may stay over. If Saturday happens to be a split day for the boys, some people may choose to stay around town instead of making a several hour drive back home. Those people are going to need something to do--where it's cool! They may even decide to shop a bit.
I believe in never missing an opportunity. Welcome and wish good luck to the All Stars on your signs. If you have a special offer going on, let them know. Post your hours, especially if you may stay open lon
Get Ready for the Jena All Stars!
District play kicks off on Friday, June 14 for 5U, 6U, 7U, and 8U teams. The boys have put in a lot of effort and would appreciate your support. You can find brackets for each age group on the Jena DYB, Inc. page.
Let's cheer on the Jena All Stars! GO JENA!!!⚾️
Sometimes, being bombarded with ads, logos, schedules, photos and work feels like a tornado of chaos. So, I hit the pause button, take a deep breath and escape it all. No responsibilities, no stress, just me. Right now is my moment to just be. How about you? Care to join me in this moment?
