TBB May Updates
/Hey TBB,
The season is kicking into high gear, so buckle up! Here are your updates for May:
Last Call for TBB Jerseys & Pride Shirts 5/2: Both of these items are PREORDER ONLY in the TBB Shop and after this Thursday May 2nd, they'll likely be gone for good. Remember you'll need your 2019 password to access the shop.
For the TBB Jersey, we just added Unisex/Men's sizes 5XL & 6XL, as Icarus is able to go bigger than we realized. It also comes in Women's and even Youth/Baby sizes. We've never done a jersey/kit before and who knows if we do one again?
Regarding the 2019 TBB Pride Shirts, we hope to have them in time for the 6/1 Pride match or the 6/9 Pride March at the latest. This shirt comes in Unisex/Men's and Women's sizes. And remember that all the proceeds benefit the Gender Health Center.
Tailgate: We appreciate each and every one of you for contributing to the amazing tailgate! The 5pm start time was a great success, but we'll continue to request additional time, as we would ideally prefer 3 hours prior to kickoff. If you have any ideas to make it even better or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
US Open Cup vs Renope 5/15: This match is NOT included in your season tickets, but all tickets are general admission for $12. We are still discussing which section we'll be occupying, as we certainly have our routine, although it might be a fun chance to try out a different vantage point. Either way, we'll all be together.
We Need More Brass!: While our drummers are as strong as ever, we could use additional trumpets, trombones, etc. If you have even minimal abilities with brass instruments or know anyone that might want to play with us, please let us know.
Away Days: These upcoming trips already have Facebook event pages for coordination (tickets, travel, hotels, parties, etc).
5/4 @Las Vegas - The match is this Saturday with tickets and a hotel discount on the event page. The watch party location is TBD for those of us that can't make the trip.
5/8 @Fresno - Midweek match, so no bus, but members are already coordinating carpools.
6/29 @Reno - We don't seem to have enough interest for a bus, but we are looking at a potential hotel discount with updates coming soon.
7/27 @OC - Interested in an epic Travel Bridge Battalion bus trip to Orange County? Let us know by RSVPing on the event page.
Upcoming Community Events:
5/19 TBB @ Walk a Mile in Her Shoes - This is one of our bigger events for the year and we need your help! We walk in heels to support WEAVE in the fight against domestic violence, sexual assault and trafficking.
