No Matches Last Week; Huricane Irene Ravishes Region

Huricane Irene reeked havoc on the Mid Atlantic region last week wipping out a thin slate of matches that were scheduled.  Every town in the League with the exception of Mechanicsburg was affected by the storm in some degree.  Power was not restored in some towns until the middle of this week.  Massive flooding took place in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York.  Winds brought downed trees and power lines to Delaware and Maryland.  Even though it is not in our league, one of the fine clubs in vintage base ball had its town destroyed.  Roxbury, New York in the upper part of the state which is home to the Roxbury Nine was destroyed in the floods that ravaged that area.  They are in real need of assistance from the vintage community as well as others who would like to lend a helping hand.  If you can donate, please log on to this site for more information about how you can help:  http://markproject.org/about-mark/donate.  Their streets are now rivers and they could really use a hand.
