Be a Buddy at the Miracle League!
Kiwanis Miracle League provides children with physical or mental challenges a safe and spirited environment where they can hit, run, and catch on a baseball field. Children aged 5-18 with special needs participate. Every player is matched with a “buddy” to help with hitting, catching, fielding, or throwing the ball, and to provide encouragement and assistance as needed.
Volunteers range in age from middle school (12) to senior citizens. Buddies provide safety first; they enthusiastically play baseball with their special player; and encourage the player to have fun! Buddies will receive training, commit to the “Buddy Pledge”, and can receive community service credit.
Members from our church will be helping at the games on Saturday, June 28.
We need 10 volunteers for each of the two games:
9:30 game (Arrive by 9:15)
10:30 game (Arrive by 10:15)
