So...I have been trying for a while to get a lovely game of kickball on and have been unsuccessful...However, it starts NOW! Maybe late September/early October...anyone interested in playing a friendly game of kickball on say, Sunday afternoons, let's do it. At first, my thoughts are get together and play. If enough sowallers show, organize teams and play on a regular schedule. I welcome any and all ideas...Mine basically include KEG, SOWALLERS and FUNN!
GAME ON!
If this doesn't make you wanna play, you got issues.

If we were to get kicked off the field for no apparent reason, I would love to see that news story in the Walton Sun. The local school Board would look like meanies.

Alright- game report? A good time? Injury report? We went to the movies- now I have "Happy Feet" so look out next time!:roll:

Of course it was a good time! I very much enjoyed the group we had today -small as it was!
Don't forget to work off that turkey and dressing by playing kickball next Sunday at 3:30!
Happy Turkey Day to all!

Despite that we didn't play and left early, we enjoyed it! ;-)

If you eat too much this week, perhaps you should join us for Kickball at 3:30pm, this Sunday, at Bay Elementary School playground, located on Hwy 395 (Point Washington). The weather is supposed to get up in the lower 70's on Sunday. Yippie!!! Please come play some kickball and work off that Thanksgiving belly.

Got a small question...and I realize that, next to Shelly, I'm the ultimate wet blanket on this board...and I'm not going to open my mouth to anyone...but did anyone ask the Walton County School District for permission to play at Bay Elementary?![]()

Perhaps moving the kickball to a public park - for example, Cessna Park or even Helen McCall - should be considered? (Keep in mind the SW Little League gets possessive/territorial of the baseball fields in the spring.)
I enjoyed holding the fence up and watching y'all a couple of Sundays ago. I don't want my SoWal friends to get hauled off for trespassing.
you are no wet blanket SN - you raise a very good question here. I believe the school could ask the kickball group to stop, it's a public school but that doesn't mean its available for public use (liability, maintenance, security, etc). paying taxes does not give permission to play kickball. but hopefully they will not be worried about it.
it would be nice if we had more public parks in sowal for such use though.

Hopefully if they find out, they won't care. Again, I'm not saying anything (kickball? What kickball?)
I had to sit in Bay Elementary's parking lot on Friday for a period of time (rendezvous with Santa) and I did notice they have a sign about skateboarding, skating and rollerblading but it does not say you can't use the facilities. And, they could lock the gate by the basketball court, but they don't. So, I'm hoping that is an implicit way of saying they don't mind.

Should we have a Holiday intermission and resume playing in January?
I would LOVE to keep playing, but I realize the December is a busy month and several regulars appear to be injured...Thoughts from the Peanut Gallery?

Maybe a good idea. I finally went back this past weekend and there were only seven of us there. Funn game, but not quite enough people.SoWal Expert
...and I wasn't going to play with my messed up knee, but since there weren't enough players, I played injured and kicked left-footed. My knee is getting worse and I need to give it a rest. I did recruit another player for this Sunday, but she can always come back in January.Maybe a good idea. I finally went back this past weekend and there were only seven of us there. Funn game, but not quite enough people.
Plus, Amore is having the Waco Ramblers start up at 4pm on Sundays. I vote that we hold off play until January.

I'm thinking we need to take up a safer sport - like shuffleboard.
But we would probably get tendonitis in our elbows, and some of you crazy guys would find a way to make the disc thing go airborne.:shock:
So- kickball in January sounds good. Between now and then, let's all heal up from our assorted injuries and come back focused and rested.
Well, maybe not rested.:roll:

I vote the turquoise blue kickball as head of table at Amore on Sundays in December! Who has him?

I didn't get injured playing kickball. I was injured from lifting weights.

kickball is kicking ya'll's butts. :roll: why not just start a nice little Sunday afternoon at Grayton Beach or Eden State Park, for drinks and story/joke telling?

Eating Thai food next door to the gym, knitting , and making pies are all much safer pursuits.

This is a different group to try to take time away from our drinking and eating schedule.

Why didn't you show up for the last two weeks? Where is my violin?

FYI- I would never say anything about a funn that I woulds say to her face. ;-) Oh, I know what you are talking about. Actually, someone else whom I had just met, said oh you know Jfunn. Then I asked where you were, since it was a party. Your friend replied, "...
Back to kickball, my vote only counts once. If you guys elect to play, that's cool. I will deliver the balls and bases.

I won't go there. So, I had to confirm the story, and your other Funn friend said, "that is what I heard too." :roll: Just remember that Amore Pizzeria is offering free music by the Waco Ramblers along with a pizza/beer special from 4p-8pm, so you should forget about the BBQ for now.

oh great i am glad you have cleared things up with your version :roll:
