With the 2011 season rapidly approaching, the Morehead City Marlins have officially announced the formation of the MHC Marlins Club. Originally formed by local fans of the Marlins on February 3rd, the MHC Marlins Club will serve as a support system for the Marlins players and staff throughout the year.
The MHC Marlins Club was designed to support players and staff, as well as creating a strong and enthusiastic fan base for the organization. In addition to promoting Morehead City Marlins Baseball, the Club will assist in recruiting host families, help secure jobs for players, and plan team-oriented events. The Club allows fans the opportunity to have a voice and to share ideas under the guidance of the Marlins organization while reaching Club goals.
“We were approached with this idea at the completion of last season by a number of our host families,” said Marlins General Manager Christopher Marmo. “They had a wonderful experience last year and wanted to become more involved within our organization. Our new support system will help each player get more acclimated in Carteret County within a short period of time.”
Doug Arden of Newport will preside as President during the inaugural year of the Club. Lorie Avery of Morehead City was selected as Vice President and Misty Penny of Morehead City will serve as Secretary/Treasurer. The MHC Marlins Club is an organization aimed at elevating the support of the Morehead City Marlins Baseball Team. The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, March 3rd at 7:00 pm at Morehead City Country Club. Membership dues vary from $20-$40 and designation of member responsibility is determined by each members’ daily schedule. Anyone interested in becoming a member is encouraged to attend.
All Marlins fans can now follow the MHC Marlins Club via Facebook; simply search MHC Marlins Club. The Club will meet the first Thursday of every month to discuss ideas and to effectively plan club events.
