We need pictures of past (older) Monroe baseball/softball

We are creating a bulletin board of pictures and paraphernalia of past Monroe baseball/softball to go with our "Old Time" theme of opening day.

 If you have pictures or articles of when you played in Monroe years ago, please email Roger Pyle.
