Heroes Playing Baseball with the PROS!
Hope4Heroes is proud to announce the first ever Wounded Heroes Baseball Classic on September 4, 2010!
The Wounded Heroes Baseball Classic was created to give our wounded heroes from all generations an opportunity to play America's favorite past time with legends of Major League Baseball in cities across the country. The Classic puts military heroes against MLB legends in an All-Star game format. The game is an opportunity for the local community to show their support and watch the heroes and legends play their favorite sport in a fun family atmosphere.
For our disabled veterans this is a true once in a lifetime experience and opens many doors to all veterans via the local and national attention and partnering NPO's. This event changes lives!
SPONSORS!
You can live out your dreams and be in the dugout the entire game next to a Hall of fame MLB ball player!
Watch or play with 15 MLB Legends, Hall of Famers and World Series Ring winners including: Bob Feller, Fergie Jenkins, Gaylord Perry, Jay Johnstone and many more!
Game begins at 7:05 p.m. Tickets can be purchased for just $15 by contacting Blue Knights Texas Chapter 12 wildbill3101@att.net

I know this is short notice…but the Blue Knights have traditionally made “the rounds” for National Night Out. With that being said, I will be putting together a route for us to hit that night. We will begin at the Texas Research Park off HWY 211 and HWY 90—they will have food there and then we will make our way back into town. I will set up a rally point for about 5:00 pm that date. Open to ALL Blue Knights!

SATURDAY RIDE TO CORPUS
Supporting Los Reguladores LEMC
Oct. 3rd, 2009
I will be leaving my house at 0630 this Saturday morning the 3rd of October. Anyone interested in going we will meet at Mi Reina Mexican restaurant, 1604 south and I.H. 37 south. If you're heading south, take the 1604 exit and do the turn around under bridge and head back north. The restaurant will be on your right, it has a gravel parking lot. They open at 6am. Kickstands up at 7:45. This is a benefit through the Reguladores Law Enforcement motorcycle club from Corpus Christi. If you go to their website you'll see that it has a 20.00 donation for the poker run. First bikes out at 10:00 am, leaving from the Harley shop on SPID. Last bike out at 1:00pm. Exit the (old Brownsville exit). As your heading south like your headed to Padre Island, look to your left and take the next exit after you pass it. So far we have 3 possibles from our Blue Knights Chapter XII. I am making plans to stay for the night and drive back on Sunday morning. There are some that are going to drive back that Saturday afternoon. My contact number is (210) 394-0428 if you are going to be late, just call me. Wear your colors for this event please.
