Every year at our baseball and softball “Opening Day” I have the pleasure of reading the names of the youth participating in the program as they run the bases carrying their team banner. There were many familiar names on the rosters… almost every team is being coached by a former participant of our sports program. I’ve always believed that in order for our community to maintain a high quality of life is for all of us to teach our youth the importance of giving back. This summer, take advantage of sports programs, classes, trips, and special events. Get involved and give the youth in our valley a summer of memories they can share with the next generation… Come out and Play!
