GCFPC WEEKLY UPDATE – Gettysburg v. Dickinson
GCFPC WEEKLY UPDATE – Gettysburg v. Dickinson
This Saturday the Bullets travel to Carlisle to put behind them a nasty loss to Muhlenberg and keep “The Little Brown Bucket” the Bullets reclaimed from Dickinson last year (the Bucket has gone to the winner of this game for several decades).
WEEKLY HONORS: Congratulations to Tom Sturges and Harold Barton on being named to the Conference’s Weekly “Honor Roll” for offense and defense, respectively.
DIRECTIONS: If you need directions to or a campus map of Dickinson, go to http://www.dickinson.edu/about/maps/ . For those traveling by private aircraft, you will be happy to see that this site provides complete travel information for you and advises that Carlisle “has a 4008' long asphalt runway and can handle turbine and jet aircraft as well as helicopters.” Anyone taking their personal jet or helicopter to the game is asked to check the weather closely before flying.
TAILGATING NOTES: Dickinson has provided us with a Tailgate area for the game. As with other away games, you are on your own for Tailgating food and drink, but please meet with Gettysburg families before the game. Directions: Turn off the main road (W. High St. / Rt. 11) onto Belvedere Street (runs behind the home stands). Drive behind the home stands and go to a driveway to your right near the end where the field house is located (not the Kline Center across the street). Look for the GBurg car flags.
STADIUM ADMISSION: Dickinson charges admission to its games, however, they allow free admission for two family members of each player by just checking off the player’s name from a program roster (i.e. no “will call” as such, and no need for your son to get you on a list). Cheerleader families, let the admissions staff know your affiliation (we would hope they would accommodate cheerleaders as well).
FRANKLIN AND MARSHLL GAME TAILGATING: With the last home game pre- and post-game Tailgates will resume on November 11th at the Pavilion next to Quarry Lake.
That week, Freshmen Parents (last names starting in “M” though “Z”) are asked to provide the “potluck” food.
SENIOR BANQUET: The Senior Dinner has been scheduled for Saturday, December 2nd . Invitations were sent out by email this week. Let us know if you did not receive one.
BULLETS MERCHANDISE: Orders placed by this Sunday should be available for pick up at the next home game (Nov. 11th). Please support the Parents Club with an order. Don't forget, Bullets Merchandise makes great holiday gifts!
ACTION PHOTOS: Action photos are available on Bill Dowling’s website (www.dowlingphoto.com) -- 5x7 @ $15; 8x10 @ $20; 11x14 @ $30; Collage @ $75. Go to Bill’s website and start with “Bullets Football” on the right margin of his home page. The current photos will only be on the site for another week or so.
