With Special Guest Instructor, Brent Strom ADVANCED ALUMNI PITCHERS CAMP Service Highlight
Before becoming the pitching coach for the Houston Astros, Coach Brent Strom was a regular coach at our elite pitchers’ boot camps. Since joining the major leagues, he hasn’t had much of an opportunity to return. We are thrilled that coach Strom is returning for this weekend as both an instructor and presenter. In “An Evening With Brent Strom,” pitchers will have the chance to listen to Coach Strom give a special presentation. Afterward, there will be a Q&A session, pictures, and autographs. Our Advanced Alumni Pitchers Boot Camp is set for the weekend of Jan. 2–3, but don’t wait until the last minute! This event is limited to 24 pitchers and will fill up quickly. Keep in mind that this event is only available for players who have previously attended one of our events before.
To reserve your spot today, visit www.RanchAlumni.com. SAVE $500 if you register before December 1st!
To start the new year right, we want to give pitchers a chance to further their training through our Advanced Alumni Pitchers Boot Camp. This two-day camp will delve into a variety of advanced concepts and techniques to expand on what pitchers have learned in our other camps. Participants will also receive feedback on video footage, analyzed by Coach Wolforth, in addition to personal time with each of our ranch coaches and our special guest, Brent Strom.
SPECIAL BONUS: Any pitcher who participates in our advanced boot camp can stay for an additional week of training January 4-7 for only $995. Take the concepts learned at the Advanced Camp and hone your skills before the start of the season at the “Extended Stay Winter” session.
5 STEPS TO A SAFER HOTEL ROOM Keep Strangers and Viruses Out With These Quick Tips
3. Quarantine your remote control. As USA Today puts it, “It’s common knowledge that one of the germiest items in a hotel room is the remote control.” To avoid the ick, pick up the remote while wearing gloves and drop it into a Ziploc. Then, remove your gloves and seal the bag. Now you can use the remote without touching it directly! 4. Invest in a rubber door wedge. Viruses aren’t the only risk in hotel rooms — break-ins are another concern. To keep your room secure, bring a rubber door wedge. They cost less than $10 on Amazon and make kicking in a door much more difficult. 5. For maximum security, bring a door alarm. Simple travel alarms hang from the handle of a door and have two prongs that slide between the door and its frame. When the door opens and the prongs separate, that triggers the alarm. These simple devices send thieves running, and Lewis N. Clark makes a model for just $14.99.
Staying home is the best way to protect yourself and your family from illness, but sometimes life gets in the way. Maybe you need to travel for work, to help a relative, or just to keep your kids from bouncing off the walls. If you have a hotel stay on the books, worrying about safety is understandable. But by taking these precautions, you can protect your loved ones and increase your odds of coming home healthy. 1. Bring a sanitation kit and use it! Most hotels are going above and beyond to sanitize their rooms these days, but it never hurts to take extra care. Before you check in, pick up cleaning supplies like disinfectant spray, wipes, plastic bags, and gloves. Then, use them to wipe down your room. Focus on big surfaces as well as features like faucet handles, doorknobs, lightswitches, and microwave buttons. 2. Skip the decorative linens. Many hotels don’t wash decorative bedding like comforters and fancy pillowcases. To be extra safe, strip these off the bed and wash your hands afterward. If you’re chilly, opt for the hotel’s spare blanket (it’s probably hiding in a closet) or bring one from home.
Hopefully, these tips give you some peace of mind on your next trip. Happy trails!
