Think back when you were a kid, for just a moment.  For some of us, it is definitely a further trip back in time, but I think I can safely say that most of us enjoyed playing outside...pretend games like Pirates, cops and robbers, cowboys, and whatever else our imaginations came up with.  When I was a kid, one of my favorite TV shows, was 'Batman', with Adam West and Burt Ward.  I donned a towel, or blanket, or whatever other type of makeshift cape I could come up with and my utility belt was generally nothing more than a cub scout belt with stuff hanging off of it.  We enjoyed those times...we were outside getting fresh air and not perched in front of the TV for 8 hours a day during the summer.  We did have an Atari Pong, but with only one game really, it got really old, really quick.  What if I were to tell you that you could relive those days of pretending?  Let me share a little bit of info about 'Players of Utica' to go.
