Saints of the Month:  Keeping it true blue… Dave Lodder loaded up our the first responders from Ross and Butler county with care packages and donations.  He has a special skill with a tape gun.   When you hear that ripping sound, you know good things are getting done.  Thank you.

2016 FC Cincinnati Game : Die GutenZeiters tailgated on the roof of the Library,  Hooliganed in the Upper Deck, and lost 2 – 0 to Crystal Palace.  FCC!

2016 Perry Park: Having sent our best dressed team out to Perry Park this time, I am confident we broke some course records.  Our safety coordinators reported that is time to draw numbers for rooms again, due to loud noisies and structural weakness.

911 STEEL Hillbilly Jam :   We are especially proud of our guys taking the 911 Steel down to Maggie Valley, NC for the Hillbilly Jam with Kaitlyn Baker.  They got to enjoy the amazing country side, met a few tv stars, and probably learned a few new local phrases.  Thanks again for representing us on the road.
