Financial Aid Program...

Plumstead Baseball has created a financial aid committee. This committee coordinates with the school counselors at Gayman Elementary, Groveland Elementary, and Tohickon Middle School to award partial or full, as funds allow, grants to those in financial need. Players who do not attend those 3 schools are also eligible and applications would be made directly to the Financial Aid Committee. For further information please contact Craig Davis.

SpyWare Got You Down?

SpyWare, malware, adWare, whatever the vehicle, it can cause a great deal of problems and may even render your computer useless. Does your "home" page change when you go online? Do you have new search toolbars or other icons and things on you web browser? You may be infected with SpyWare.

I have received many calls for help with this ever increasing problem. I recommend two FREE programs. AdAware from a company called Lavasoft, and Spybot Search and Destroy from Safer Networking.

Go here for more information on this nasty problem and some reviews of Spyware removal and prevention software. MORE>>>
