Folks our golfer field is filled. We have had to turn away over 20 foursomes. The response has been fantastic!!! Thank You!

We have some great items for the AUCTION and this is an event that is open to the public. The auction will start around 1:30 P.M. at the TPC Golf course in Va Beach.

One additional note - this event will not be for autograph seekers. This is a charitable event and our players have donated many items to support the auction. Thanks for your understanding and support.
Many thanks to all that participated in this event!

The response was truly unbelievable!

Special thanks to all the Professional Players, what great kids!

Additional thanks to Glenn Miller, GTI Systems and Tim Miller - The Tim Miller Foundation.

Lastly, we couldn't have pulled this off without the hand of Tom Robinson - The Virginia Pilot or Tony Mercurio - ESPN1310 Radio.

Regards and best wishes to all,

Ron Smith
Dear "Friends of Towny Townsend", I would like to take this oppurtunity to thank the baseball family near and far for the daily support emotionally, physically, and financially that has been a constant since my operation in July. Cancer is the most difficult opponent I have ever faced but I have not had to do it alone. God's hands were on me and he assembled a incredible team to aid me and my family in going on the offensive. A special thanks to Ron Smith (blaster) Ron's father was Billy Smith...who pitched in the bigs for phillies and Cardinals and died from the same cancer of the throat that afflicted me. James Cotterell, Tim Miller, and Glenn Miller who worked tirelessly on my foundations behalf. I would also like to thank the myriad of posters from all over the country and friends,players,coaches,etc too numerous to mention here for your constant prayers,encouragement, and thoughts. Know that although I was hit a bad hop, We have knocked it down in front, are picking it up bare-handed, and are set to make the throw. God bless each and everyone of you this holiday season!!! Give thanks daily...that's what I'll be doing. Towny
