Reuters Tinton Falls, NJ: Just when you thought it couldn’t end well for the suspects, secrets slip, photos reveal all and innocent people and squirrels are vindicated. Not just vindicated, but glorified!
What happened you ask? (Go ahead, ask – “What Happened?”) Well, it seems in one of the recently developed pictures taken during Mr. The Squirrel’s tenure with 109S Photography, a disrobing squirrel is seen, and it’s not as unsettling as you would think. Under that fur we have come to know over the past few months, is the suit known to all people of the world. The protector of truth, justice and nuts..Super Squirrel.
It seems Mr. Lane has been a trusted confidant of Super Squirrel, and has put up with all the nut cracks (no pun intended) to keep the secret identify of Mr. The Squirrel.
Kudos to Mr. Lane, and kudos to the protector of squirrels and small rodents everywhere!

UPDATE 4: Just when you thought it was done! There is still time to sign! Please print a petition from the downloads page, get it signed and get it to Mike or Paul! The Council has heard us and supports us! The petition process takes a little longer, so we still have time!
UPDATE 3: Extension! Due on or before 6/14! Response has been great! Keep up the good work!
UPDATE 2: Put your own name / Team name on the back of the petition. There will be a prize drawing (prize to be determined) for the team submitting the most signatures.
Many parents have expressed interest in softball having its own fields for use in the town. The first step in having a place for the girls to call home is to have the town council acknowledge there is such a need. To that end there is a petition available to collect signatures of those people in town that support the idea. Please download a copy of the petition (here or the Downloads page) and circulate it among town residents. For instructions for completed petition pages, please contact Michael Stanton (tfsoftball@gmail.com) or Paul Nelson (paulnelson.282@gmail.com)
Thank you for your support!
Update: Many of you may be unaware of the behind the scenes efforts it takes to schedule the current fields with other competing recreational activities and keep the current fields playable.
