Happy Holidays

YOOOOOOOOO, Happy Holidays everyone, we hope that everyone is doing well and tearing up the winter season. It's been real busy since our last post. Lori just got back from a tremendous visit to Florida where she met up with Big Al and Big E. The two are doing very well and are enjoying the beautiful sunshine. Bobby and Jerry are planning a massive road trip to LA, where Bobby will be spending a couple of months out on the west coast, doing BIG things. Jerry, obviously will be coming back, as he is just going for a little vacation. I hope California is ready for Bobby Badlands!!!!! And this past weekend, Bill & Martha went to one of the premiers of The Fighter, courtesy of Eran Lobel (Max Lobel's dad), and had an awesome time and really enjoyed the film.

Rotman was recently in attendance at a USY basketball game between Needham and Lexington. Caribou was well represented on both sides as Tyler Swartz, Josh Feldman, and Jon Marsh (the real BIG 3) played for Needham and Matt Singer played for Lexington. It was a back in forth battle all through out the game. At half, Needham was down by 4 points and desperatley needed a spark. Ben Marsh (Needham Head Coach) asked Rotman if he would join him in coaching the Needham team. Rotman accepted the challenge and gave the jolt of energy Needham was looking for!!!!!! In the end, Needham edged Lexington in an instant classic. It was awesome seeing our Caribou boys on the hardwood. Ben Marsh was quoted in a press conference after the game, "I'm proud of all the Caribou boys today."

On Sunday December 12th Bill was called by an old childhood friend from Brookline who said he would be at Wayland High School to watch his 7th grade son play metrowest basketball. Bill went and saw Quinn Peebles play as well as Kevin O'leary (Walpole player). Quinn was all business: blocking shots, playing great "D", handling the ball in the press & generally all around AWESOME!!!! In the end, Wayland won by 10, but it was awesome seeing Peebles. We look foward to watching Quinn play at the 'bou summer 2011!!!

Hey, we would love to see more of you guys play for your hometown, so let us know your sports schedules and we will try to get out there and cheer you on.

A little staff news: Charlie Rotman, Rafa, Nino, Sergio, Transporter, Fadil, John White, DJ South, and Jorge have all recently signed on for next summer!!!! AHHH LET's GO

Overall, things are still rockin' over here in the winter office. Keep the updates coming, Happiest of Holidays, Happy New Year, Tons of hugs!!!!!!!!

Happy Holidays

WHAT'S UPPP Caribou Nation,

Yesterday at the Meadowbrook school in Weston, MA, Caribou had its first Pick-Up basketball event. And what a great time we had. For two hours we played loads of basketball, took hundreds of half court shots (shout out to lucas long, Louie Rabinovitz, Ben Zimmerman, and many others for that ridiculousness), had a ton of snacks and drinks, and did it up Caribou style. In attendance: Gabe Brown, Andrew Dennis, Jay Maxwell, Miles Backer (who kept on stealing the basketball from Rotman), Peter Rabinovitz, Tyler Swartz, Ian Reilly, Ethan Ruder, Ben Winer (new to the Caribou Family), Henry Forman, Evan Smith, Louis Rabinovitz, Ben Mcpherron, Max Lobel, Michael Rosen, Will Rosen, Greg Francis, Ben Zimmerman, Sam Zimmerman, Lucas Long, Jack Long, Jigz Lerman, Lori, Bill, Martha, and Rotman. It was a great turnout, tons of fun, and it was great seeing everyone. We definitely have to do that again and possibly bring it down to DC and New York.

In other Caribou News, we are rockin' and rollin' through the winter season, having tons of campers re-enroll and adding new guys to our family. Nicole Rotman and Jorge Pelayo just signed on for the summer of 2011, which is awesome and we are so excited that they will be coming back. Bobby Lerman returned today from South Africa and had an amazing time, saw loads of Caribou people and truly enjoyed the summer weather down there.

We would love to hear from all you guys, so we can add to our blog. We hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the holiday season. Take care and keep in touch.
