• April 25 – English Field at Union Park (4:30 p.m.)

• April 26 – Tech Softball Park (6 pm.)

Those who are unable to pick up the blanket at any of these dates are welcome to designate someone to pick up the blanket on their behalf – provided the designated person has the proper account holder’s information (name and account number).

Following these days, more opportunities will be made available and considerations will be given to those who do not live locally in Southwest Virginia.
