Ball Tournament Benefit

&

Dinner Concert Benefit

 

 

 

 After leaving the garage sale, we went to a benefit ball tournament sponsored by our church’s two ball teams. 

 

 

 The funds raised through food and donations will benefit Glenn and Dawn Bollinger.   Glenn has a brain tumor that is causing seizures – making it impossible for him to work.

A few of our young people sold fruit, drink, and baked goods.  Our granddaughter Jenna is on the right.

 

 

There were hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries, and soft ice cream.

 Caleb and Everett

 

 

 A bit later I found Caleb sleeping in his daddy’s arms.

  

 

 These are the guys who made sure we received an invitation to the tournament – our grandsons Nathan and Jordan.

 

 

 Marty, Jeff (our oldest son), and Nate watching the “home run derby.”  Marty was the winner of the derby – with nine home runs.

 

 

Red socks!

 

 

 Jordan, the stocking-footed ball player.

 

 

 Nate in left field, waiting to catch any balls that came his way – those that did not make it over the fence during the derby.

 

 

 Trying for a home run.

 

 

 Home run!

 

 

 Nate eventually changed positions and became the catcher during the derby.

 

 

 Waiting for the next game.

 

 

 Watching

 

 

 Practicing.

We enjoyed being there for two hours, but had to leave before our grandsons played, because we had one more event to attend.
