OK here we go.....I know this is not prefect and I'm sure its not going to be fair.....BUTT!!!!!
5/20 @ 5pm Julien field we will be having a batting derby for Arcadio it will be a fund raiser for his family... $10.00 entry fee
2-age groups 8-10 and 11-12 WE are going to mark off Julien in the outfield with a given distance from home plate in 3 areas We will use the pitching machine and give the kids 10 shots at hitting the ball. If the ball goes to zone 1 that will be 1 ticket, zone 2 will be 2 tickets and a HR will be 5 tickets. After each age group we will draw the winners, we have several gifts including 2 F3 Comp bats. It also looks like we will be able to do a BBQ and a 50/50 raffle
ALL proceed will be given to Arcadios family and any donations can be made at US Bank in Turlock

Do you have to be a LL 12 yr old to participate?? Or.........can we slide a 13 yr old group in there for kicks and make more money???
I'm sure the boys would do it without a prize. "HOME RUN CHAMP" would be sufficient ;D

Kenny, I was thinking about that age also. Maybe someone can donate a nice prize and we can open up a 13-15 division.

That sounds like fun greenie. We all know they can put it over, so maybe we could be creative and come up with a target. Something like a bulls eye on that new scoreboard. All the dads donate 5 bucks or something! Could be fun !!

BTW Randy.............That $10 entry fee seems a little light. Shouldn't it be more like $20 ??
