Please leave a message in the guestbook to show Jen and Ryan your support.

Hey Everyone-
I know I said that my last post was going to be THE last post, however, I wanted to inform everyone that Jennifer will be playing in her first soccer game on June 1st since suffering the stroke.  This is really a defining day for her and a milestone for which she has been relentlessly training.  I would be lying if I didn't say we are both a bit apprehensive, but at the same time, Jennifer could not be more excited.  We were out shooting around on Saturday, and she was literally crushing the ball.  (I must admit that she scored on me much more than what I would deem acceptable, considering she is just under a year removed from the stroke and I am supposedly in very good game shape.) The game is at 6:45PM in Inver Grove Heights versus Mankato State, and we would love it if anyone wanted to come cheer on Jennifer.  I have listed the directions below for anyone who might be interested in attending the game.  Hope to see some of you at the fields.  Take care.

Rich Valley Fields
There are several fields at the complex, but only one parking lot. Look for other women players as the field you will play on may change based on what is open at that time.1841 105th St
Inver Grove Heights, MN 55077
Driving Directions:
Take 494 to Robert St. exit (1 exit west of Hwy 52). Go south on Robert St (which becomes South Robert Trail) for about 4 miles. Where the road looks like it comes to a Y, Robert Trail turns right and Cty 71(Rich Valley Rd) goes left. Take Cty 71 for about 1 mile. The fields will be on the left. Coming from South Minneapolis, you can also take Hwy 55 after crossing the Mendota Bridge and that will cross South Robert Trail about 2 miles down from where it crosses 494. Field D is the southernmost field.
