I begin today by remembering those that died as a result of the attack on Pearl Harbor on this date 70 years ago.I am thankful for you and all the other veterans of this country every day.

There was a lot that happened with SHoE over the past week. The Bears won all three games last weekend to vault them into first place in the division. Check out the wrap-ups here, here and here. On of the games was broadcast by ABC 27 and we had behind the scenes coverage. And of course we can’t forget that the home game on Saturday was Teddy Bear Toss night. Did you see the pictures? In the midst of all that, the Hershey-Derry Township Historical Society hosted a dinner called “A Night at the Old Barn”. We were there to cover it and we also had an interview with Mike “Doc” Emrick where Emrick talks about the Old Barn, the Bears and his thoughts on the Caps/Bruce Boudreau. Whew! And that was just our coverage of the week. Now on to the others…
