ND-DC CO-ED FLAG FOOTBALL TEAM - FALL SEASON IS HERE
Fall is upon us, and the ND co-ed flag football team is back on the gridiron. The Flagging Irish are always looking for new recruits, so if you're interested in playing email John Dickas (johndickas@yahoo.com). Games are on weekends in Anacostia Park against teams organized by other alumni clubs, and no experience or commitment is necessary. The regular season runs from September 7 through the end of November, and joining mid-season is no problem.
BETTER OFF BOWLING - FALL SEASON BEGINS (10/19)
Better Off Bowling is a co-ed social bowling league for young professionals that run two separate leagues, one on Sunday afternoons and another on Monday evenings during the Fall (and yes, the NFL games are on the big screen TVs). They have a bunch of young professionals along with a number of other school alum groups and usually have ~400 fun social people in the league. They've contacted us hoping we would be interested in getting a team or two together (does not have to be all alums though). Registration ends early October, and the league starts rolling October 19th for the Sunday league and October 20th for the Monday night league!
Details:
As Notre Dame alums, we get $10 off the regular registration price with the discount code: DCALUMF14
$69, with discount code, for 6 weeks of bowling (includes rental shoes, drink specials, etc in addition to the bowling)
