I just finished watching the Little League World Series and realized that I hadn’t thanked the people who make our local league a success! A huge thank-you to our older league coaches, Ralph Swinton, James Sage, Scott Bradford, Frank Holmes, Gary Stigen, Ray Chapin, John Wiggins, Gracie Jones, and Scotty Hansen and to our tee-ball coaches Nishan Weerasinghe, Matt Davis, Liana Shull and Michael Ganey. Without the volunteer time from these folks and all of the parents, we wouldn’t be able to offer baseball to the 60-plus kids who sign up to play! Thank you for giving up your valuable time for the sake of our valley’s youth. It is much appreciated and it’s always fun to watch the kids on the field. Thank you so much and we’ll see you next season.
