Red Sox Tickets Available for Wedding Guests

Baseball season is upon us (even though it is cold and potentially snowy in Boston currently) and the Red Sox are promising a lot of excitement this year with the addition of Japanese ace Daisuke Matsuzaka-san and JD Drew to hit behind Manny "Being Manny" Ramirez. And as a great bonus for Sox games, you get the opportunity to visit Fenway Park, the oldest, most exciting, most historic and certainly most beloved ballpark in the world. The ballpark is about a 10-15 minute walk from all of our wedding hotels, or you can take the T (subway).

For wedding guests, I am offering some of my season tickets for your enjoyment the week of the wedding for people coming into town early. I have 2 Tickets, $40 each (face value at season ticket holder discount) in Section 7, Box 93 (in right field near Pesky's Pole, 8 rows from the field) for the games below. These tickets are offered first-come, first served to out of town guests. If you are local and interested, you can email me as well but I will let the out of towners pick first. michael.l.volpe@gmail.com

Liz and Mike News

Since I recently got scolded for not updated our wedding website (you know who you are), here are a couple pieces of news which many of you already know:

1. Liz has graduated! While the official diploma ceremony is not for a little while, Liz has defended her dissertation and has officially completed here program. We are all looking forward to Liz starting a job in August since this will mean that you (a) don't need to listen to her stress out about her program anymore (b) don't need to support her financially anymore (c) don't need to worry about her "finalizing" her dissertation for another 6 years or (d) will benefit from the great income she will be earning in August. Or in some cases, you benefit from all 4 things. :)
   
2. Mike started a new job. Mike has begin his trip into the startup world (again) at HubSpot, a company which provides internet marketing software to small businesses. You can read the company's blog (which Mike occasionally writes for) at Small Business Hub. If you know of any businesses looking to do more or better online marketing, let him know. You can also evaluate the marketing effectiveness of any website with the free website grader tool.
