    Eagle River, WI Founded 1928 Megaphone 2015 Annual Dear Megaphone Readers, The summer of 2015 has come to a close at the Friendly Confines and what a great one it was. It has been an action-packed journey for all involved at Camp Menominee this year. There have been so many memorable events this summer including the camp favorite British vs American, the returning event Sun & Wind, and last but not least the historic Green & White. We cannot forget our double victory over Camp Timberlane and our honorable performance in the defeat to Kawaga. We have represented Menominee pleasantly off camp during trips, socials and on Town Day. It has been a pleasure documenting the adventure, day by day, in the Megaphone. Every day is different at camp, this makes writing about it so interesting. I would like to thank everyone that has contributed to it, from the campers, to the counselors and support staff. I have relished the experience of writing about the boys while learning new sports and activities. I look forward to taking what I have learnt back to England. I hope you enjoy reading through the annual and it brings back many Menominee memories from this summer. The details of every person who attended camp this year are at the end of the annual so please stay in touch as much as possible. Many thanks, Dale Rawlings - 2015 Megaphone Editor Attitude Determination Heart Leadership Spirit Sportsmanship Attitude Determination Heart Leadership Spirit Sportsmanship Eagle River, WI Founded 1928 MEGAPHONE The Opening Edition Monday, 22nd June 2015 Welcome!

  • Socal Vs. Nocal? No Contest the Best Rivalry in Sports Heats Up
    SoCal vs. NoCal? No Contest The Best Rivalry in Sports Heats Up By Chris Brown and Casey Shearer It s the latter half of September, which means the fall breezes are blowing and the leaves are changing. The smell of hot-dogs and stale beer is in the air; everybody wants peanuts and Crackerjacks; children run home from school and head to the sandlot. All of which are symptoms of pennant fever. Or at least they should be. But as we look around, nobody seems to care about baseball at all. In what is usually the most exciting time of the year for baseball fans, that special excitement is somehow absent. Even as Mark McGwire and Ken Griffey Jr. chase Babe Ruth and Roger Maris, and Larry Walker chases the triple crown, something is missing: What's missing, kosher hot-dogs? A players? strike? Roy Hobbs? Steve Howe and his crack? The Cubbies? Has baseball become so unpopular so as to lose the interest of all its fans? Is it just that baseball lacks that type of hype, flashy color and big-money that basketball purports or the bone crushing thrills of football? No, what's missing are those heated races that lead to a bad case of pennant fever. With less than two weeks remaining in the season, the playoff picture is all but set in stone. In the American League, Baltimore owns the East, Cleveland looks to have the Central wrapped up, Seattle should win the West barring a major collapse, and the Bronx Bombers have sewn up the wild card.

  • SF Giants Press Clips Friday, September 28, 2018
    SF Giants Press Clips Friday, September 28, 2018 San Francisco Chronicle Can Giants spoil the Dodgers’ season? Henry Schulman Kevin Frandsen remembers the at-bat vividly. In the waning days of his major-league career, which began and ended with the Giants, he got a start against Clayton Kershaw at AT&T Park. Having barely played at all in September 2015, he expected Kershaw to bust him inside with fastballs. Frandsen got one and swung a bit early but managed to push it up the middle for a single. That was the Giants’ only hit in an 8-0 Dodgers victory that clinched the third of what is now five consecutive National League West titles. When Kershaw completed his shutout, he and his teammates turned the ballpark blue. They danced on the field and decorated the visiting clubhouse in Champagne. “He was special that night,” Frandsen said. “He smelled blood in the water at AT&T, knowing a win clinched it for them.” Once again, the schedule has brought these ancient rivals together for the season’s final weekend with a chance for one team to party and the other to ruin it, the way the Giants did when Joe Morgan hit his home run in 1982, or when the Dodgers beat Salomon Torres to send a 103-win Giants team home in ’93. In three of the past four seasons, the Dodgers have clinched the West by beating the Giants. In 2014, they did so at Dodger Stadium, again with Kershaw on the mound, and it happened last year on Tommy Lasorda’s 90th birthday.
