Dear JFKS Community,

as many of you know, one of our students, Justin, recently passed away. It has been a very big shock to our tight-knit community and our thoughts and prayers go to him and his family. Many have approached me to ask how they can help the family in this time of need. Here is how you can help…
The Berlin Scouting community is organizing a memorial service, with the assistance of the JFKS, for Justin on Tuesday, June 14th, followed by a reception, which will be open to the JFKS community. We will need the support of your donations to make this possible. If you would like to help, please send your donation to the JFKS Verein and include (under Zweck): “For Justin”. More details about the memorial service will be announced next week.
Thank you so much for your support.
Vanessa Hansen

On Monday June 6th several of our Kids traveled to the home of the Flamingos in northern Berlin to Participate in the MLB-PAA clinic with MLB alumni Todd Haney and Desmond “Desi” Relaford.

Provided we have good weather our GOAL IS TO GET ALL OF OUR PHOTOGRAPHS DONE ON JUNE 11TH. Please work with your players to have everyone available.

Here is the plan:

June 18^th is makeup/weather delay day but if we work things right we should be able to get this done on the 11^th.

We have another 4 scheduled weeks with the next three repeating the schedule we have had for the season so far. Here is what it looks like:

Week 7 

Field A – Brewers vs. Braves
Field B – Blue Jays vs. A’s
Week 8

Field A – Braves vs. Blue Jays 
Field B – Brewers vs. A’s
Week 9

Field A – Blue Jays vs. Brewers
Field B – Braves vs. A’s

Home team will be determined by the W-L record at the time of play, the team with the worse overall season record will be given “home team advantage”.

Week 10 is still to be determined but will most likely be based on the the overall W-L records of the 4 Little League teams. 

Week 11 is in the calendar as back-up day for a rain outs, we’ve been lucky so far but you never know what the weather has in store for us. If there are no rain outs it will be determined on how to best use this day.

More info on weeks 10 & 11 will be coming soon.

Lastly, please keep in mind that each Little League team is required to have a helper in the Snack Shack from 13:00 – 15:00, games can be delayed if a helper is not there.

Mark your calendars, Saturday June 11, 2016 is the ALLBB picture day, with the back up day being the following Saturday June 18th. More info regarding the exact schedule for when the teams are to be photographed will be posted soon.

The best way to start off a season is to get to know each other, and that’s what we did on Saturday the 9th of April, 2016 our beloved ALLBB did just that. The kids came out enforce to meet their baseball buddies, get back into the swing of things and show the coaches what they’ve got.

But now we look ahead and before you know it we’ll be meeting up for practices and then of course games. There’s a lot to do in a short time, but it’s for the love of our game, so let’s get out there and get it done. There’s the player draft, team practices, an umpires clinic (Thursday the 14th of April, 16-19:30) and I bet you Tom will be out there fixing up the field in every moment between. We’ll kick off our 2016 season next Saturday, come on out end enjoy the uphoria of baseball with us!
