Midnight Madness Softball Tourney 2011

Posted on July 7, 2011 by briggsauto

 The Blue Moon Midnight Madness Softball Tournament was held at Sacco Softball Complex on 24 June 2011. The tournament started at 6 pm with a total of 18 teams, 3 civilian teams and 15 military teams, each team consisting of 12-14 players. We ran the tournament throughout the night ending at 6:30 am. Most the soldiers said this tournament was fitting for them, that it basically came down to survival of the fittest. We had a lot of people that stayed throughout the night to support the players. As the dawn broke so did a thunderstorm. The championship game was called at the top of the 4th inning due to lightening with a final score of 9-4. The tournament was won by the civilian team, Spider Monkeys.The second place team went to team Diligent, of 701st BSB.The third place team went to War Dawgs from 300th MP Co.

To Lease or not to Lease?

Posted on April 19, 2011 by briggsauto

This is comommonly thought about when purchasing a new car. Most people go ahead and buy because they don’t know the facts about leasing and they believe they are losing money. When in reality they are actually saving money and have many more options. Here are a few reasons why leasing may be better than buying:

1. Your payments are lower than if you were to buy; every new car or truck depreciates–goes down in value–as soon as you drive it off  the lot, and continues to depreciate with age and as you add miles to it. Lease payments cover only the portion of the vehicle’s value that you use during the time you drive it–the depreciation–not its entire cost.

2. Depending on how long a person’s lease is and the mileage, you may be covered my manufacturer warranty, bumper to bumper; Most people like to lease for a term that coincides with the length of the manufacturer’s warranty coverage so that if something goes wrong with the car, the repairs are always covered.

3.Differnet options once your lease runs up, a person could walk away from it completely, lease another vehicle, or even buy it;  With leasing, the headaches of selling a used car are eliminated. When your lease ends, you simply turn it back to the leasing company and walk away, unless you decide to buy it or trade it. Since your monthly payments are lower, you get more car for the same money and drive a new vehicle every two to four years, depending on the term length of your leases.

Next time you are in the marekt for a new vehicle check out the leasing program, it might just be the option for you!
