Lititz Summer Showcase

We spent the weekend in Lititz at the Summer Showcase. We had temperatures of over 95degrees and humidity over 75%. The girls did an awesome job, and came away with second place in their bracket.

Just as we got in the car to leave, a storm came rolling in with lots of lightning and wind. We were under a tornado warning. Hopefully all the kids, parents and staff got off the fields before it got too bad.

"Thank you from the Lititz Summer Showcase We try to provide a memorable showcase every year. This is one they will be talking about for years to come. Sunday’s sudden violent winds and lightning brought an abrupt end to an otherwise great tournament. Trees were toppled all over the Lititz area downing power lines and causing tremendous amounts of damage. Tents were mangled and blown away. In one incident at Hummer Fields, port-a-potties were blown out onto the road where one was struck by a van and had its contents deposited on an adjacent property. On the day after, utility companies and municipal crews are still swarming the area to restore services and clean up damage and debris. And everybody has a vivid memory of where they were when the big storm of 2010 hit. Prior to all that, we had another great year of high-level competition, beautiful fields with more teams than ever and more college coaches than ever."

The Hummer fields is where our team was playing. Looks like we got out of there just in time!

Once again girls, you did an awesome job and really made us proud!
