September 19, 2007 SAINTS BASEBALL INVOLVED WITH BIG BROTHERS/BIG SISTERS The
Seward
County
Community College
baseball team is beginning their sixth year of involvement with the Big Brothers & Big Sisters of Seward, Haskell and
Stevens
Counties
organization. The Saints have scheduled eight major events with BBBS for 2007-2008, which includes all 30 players on their current roster, with the little brothers and little sisters of the organization.
The first outing the Saints had with BBBS was on Sept. 9, when they cooked hotdogs and fished at
Tucker
Lake
with approximately 10 little brothers/little sisters. This first outing was done in conjunction with the Director of the Pass It On Mentor Program of Kansas, Mr. Mike Christiansen. The Pass It On program works closely with BBBS to provide mentors for the purpose of teaching and promoting outdoor activities such as fishing, hunting, trap shooting, etc. The Saints players and all the little brothers/little sisters enjoyed their first outing and are looking forward to the rest of the school year’s activities.
