HOW DO I KNOW IF THE BUDDY BALL GAME IS GOING TO BE PLAYED? -- Phone 732-549-4701

Unscheduled events happen; sometimes we have to cancel a game. Last week it was the impending blizzard. Other times it has been failure of electric service in the Stelton building, rain or wet fields for outdoor games, etc. We have a simple way to keep everyone informed. The phone message on 732-549-4701 will be updated with the status of this week's game. If the situation is uncertain, we might even change the message as game time approaches. Don't leave home without checking the Buddy Ball phone message. (Note: this machine can only broadcast messages. You cannot leave messages on this machine.)
