Town of Sumrall








Dalton and Gerolene Rayborn, Mayor of Sumrall

Dalton had to do a project on the Town of Sumrall. We went around town taking pics of popular places in Sumrall. We even went over to the Town Hall where Dalton managed to take a pic with the Mayor. You'll see that pic here with others from our town. We love our little country town. You'll also see a pic of Dalton holding up his project.

Dalton and I went to our very first Sumrall High School Baseball game Friday night. There has been so much "hooplah" over them. Ya see, they won 3A State Champs last season, 2008, and thusfar, are undefeated for this season...36-0.
Also, Sumrall is #4 on ESPN FAB 50!!! (check it out):

1.Bellaire (TX) 24-1
2.Foy H. Moody (TX) 24-1
3.Naples (FL) 25-0
4.Sumrall (MS) 30-0
5.West Orange (FL) 24-1
6.Jesuit (FL) 23-1
7.Calallen (TX) 27-2
8.Notre Dame Prep (AZ) 23-1
9.Brother Rice (IL) 15-0
10.Menchville (VA) 12-0

That was when we were 30-0...we are now 36-0.

Tonight, they go to the final playoff STATE game in Jackson. Go Bobcats! I've posted some pics here of the game on Friday night. We really enjoyed it. It was standing room only, except I managed to sqeeze in next to someone...it was at the end where the cheering crowd was, so it was very loud, but also very fun. Dalton hung out at the fence line right up front with some of his buddies he ran into (he's in the camo below) . It amazes me to see how much spirit this town has. Hope you enjoyed the pics.
