Game Day Changes - Kevin

Road Trips - Kevin
  • MLS did us no favors in our schedule this season.  We're currently evaluating our options and talking with the other groups whether we will do buses for NY and Philly.  Count on buses to DC, Chicago and TFC.

CSU Organization - John
  • Executive Board
    • The executive board will help provide guidance to the CSU leadership.  This is part of the effort to make Crew Union a stronger organization that will continue to be successful for years to come.  The initial members of the executive board have all been involved in CSU and it's previous incarnations for several years, but for various reasons have not been able to participate as actively in the organization in recent years.  This is a way for us to keep these valuable members involved in the organization.
    • Members
      • Steve Abreu
      • Kevin Hughes
      • Matt Morgan
      • Graham Randall
      • Michael Saad
      • Scott Wittler
  • Opportunities for Members
    • We are looking for some members that would like to become more involved with the group.  We have a few things we're looking for, but these are ideas and we're open to suggestions if you have something you're passionate about and want to take on.  Most of these are things we haven't had time to do or been able to give them the focus we'd like.  Also, we're not looking for a major time commitment on any of these (unless you want to and that's fine too).

General Meeting on Sunday (2/28)


We will be having a general meeting Sunday at Claddagh following the Carling Cup final. Brad Friedel and Aston Villa take on Manchester United at 10am and then we'll have a meeting afterward (about noon) to talk about this season. We'll talk about some new changes the Crew have made for supporters this year (GA seating!), unveil our new scarf and shirt designs that members will get and discuss a few organizational changes including introducing our new executive board. Hopefully a lot of you can make it down to the pub for the meeting as well as some soccer and beers.

What: Crew Union General Meeting
When: Sunday at Noon (Following the Carling Cup)
Where: Claddagh Irish Pub in the Brewery District
 
US vs El Salvador Tonight
The US Men's National Team takes on El Salvador tonight (7pm on ESPN Classic) and we'll be doing a viewing party as usual at Claddagh.  Head on down to the pub and cheer on the yanks and especially our boys from Columbus trying to book their ticket to South Africa.

You can also purchase Toluca tickets or pay for season tickets in 101 of the Nordecke!
