View video of our celebration with the Florida Marlins
Our annual day with the Florida Marlins was another success. We had a huge crowd come on July 19th. Scholars were honored on the warning track. Even a Marlin loss could not damper the day! Thanks to all and we hope you had a good time. The Marlins were kind enough to provide us with two videos from the day. This is the feed that appeared on the big-screen scoreboard.
