Howdy folks,
I am taking part in the worlds Longest Baseball Game coming up on August 29-September 2. We all know too well what cancer does and how it has hit us all close to home, if not ourselves. Some close to home currently dealing with it themselves, some spouses, other family members and friends. I personally just lost a buddy suddenly (10 days from diagnosis) a couple weeks ago it, so it was a no brainer to throw my name in the hat to battle for 4.5-5 days on a ball field. Since signing up I've heard even further stories of people currently battling somewhere close to home as well. If you have a story for me and someone you'd like me to keep in mind and honor while on the field, please reach out. I will put up any pictures sent as well (it actually helps a ton on hour 8 straight of ball in the middle of the night to keep battling). 780-993-1461
We've been asked to raise at least $3,000 each for the event. I know there is a million and 1 things to throw your support at but I think this one is well worth it and we need the support. I've posted the link to donate up top as you can see and also the link to the event website down below here so you can read about it and see where your donation would be going this year. One thing I love about this group is not one cent goes into any sort of cost to put it on or any operating cost or administration stuff. It cost us players to take part to pay for all the things we needed. I think that is pretty cool way to do it.
Lastly, would love for you all to come check it out during the event and hang with us, see what its about and see the site. its a special place out there. Again any questions, Ideas, thoughts or if you want to be involved. Please Reach out. 780-993-1461
