Huntsville Soccer-heads helping Haiti!

This being the south, it may be news to some of you to realize that there's more than one kind of football in the world, and that Hatians, for the most part, play the other kind.  For anyone still confused, I'm talking about soccer.

 Ryan Harbaugh writes for and about the Huntsville soccer community at his Perfectly Weighted Through Blog.  Someone with more soccer knowledge than me can explain what that blog title means, but Ryan has a couple of really interesting posts here and here about the crisis in Haiti, connections to the global soccer community, and ways to help out including food donations here at Hudson Alpha and Trinity UMC.

If you play or watch soccer (or know someone who plays or watches soccer) head on over to Ryan's blog and ask how you can help partner with him and us on a future shipment of soccer equipment to help those kids begin, in Ryan's words, a "return to normalcy" in the coming months.
