Great to hear you guys had a good time. Did you get a chance to try a horseshoe ;)

They treated us all like family, from the time we got there. Fed us constantly. The Coaches drove us in vans everywhere we went. The staff are a very genuinely friendly group. Always made us feel at ease. They had a group of players talk with us Friday night. A very impressive group of young me. Got to met the owner of Chubbys and Sportscorner. Both very friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to get back for Spring game.
For the kids, they all had a player host. My son had Kyle Williams, and we all loved him. Such a good kid. They also had a photo shoot and got to try on uniforms. The kids are that up! And their player hosts got into it about as much as the kids did. :-). All in all a great weekend. My son didnt want to leave today, and honestly I really didn't either. We thought we were before, but I can honestly say we are now truly a Leatherneck family!

I didn't! They had a set menu for us at Chubbys Fri night, but the Shoe wasn't on it. I'll definitely have one when I'm in town for Spring game in April
