The Lakers kicked off the season hosting a picnic at Sherman Park, so fans could mingle with the team members and meet the rookies. The kids had a good meal of hot dogs, brats, and watermelon. There were some kid games, but the dunk tank is where we spent most of our time. Lily even took a turn getting wet to give some of the freshman a break. The kids showed off their throwing arms dunking the players, too. Even Brian really liked this, as he's a natural at throwing things. The Lakers have a blue-gold game on Oct. 8, and thier first home game is on the 14th.
