Let’s call this one Softball parents and the things people do for others !
This story touched my Heart ❤ because of the teamwork involved. I wrote about it but its one that fell through the cracks.
Today I had the privilege of running into this pleasant Man 👨 that we’ll call Alexis Dalton’s Dad..
4:00 start time for the Junior Varsity golf team as they host our neighbors from Stuart.
The Junior Varsity plays a similar format as the Varsity squad with the difference being they don’t play as long of a schedule.
Today’s match is a 9 hole competition and that’s the beginning of the story. Each one of these young golfers 🏌️♂️ will be walking around
Our hilly course, being responsible for either carrying or pulling their golf clubs. That in itself merits my appreciation!
Golfers 🏌️♂️
Cougars and Cavs…..
The goal today is to try and capture a photo of each of the three foursomes that are in the match. Everyone that you have seen up to this point have been the Varsity players.
Our Coaching Duo !
Patrick County Head Coach Phillip Steagall and long time friend, Scott Errichetti. Sherry Slaughter speaks very highly of this gentleman and I trust her thought process a great deal.
Coach Steagall is responsible for both the Varsity and Junior Varsity golfers at Patrick County.
5:27 pm – the three foresomes are now on the sixth and seventh hole…
Foresome #3 has two CCHS freshman playing, Aiden Chambers and CC Mitchell. I will do my best to get the names of the Cougars as well.
Lane Errichetti and Maddox Taylor are the Cougars in group #3…
It’s also great to see 👀 parents and Grandparents who have taken time out of their lives to rent a Golf ⛳ Cart and support their Family. In this group we have four folks in three golf cards encouraging the young ones. Aiden’s Grandfather, Lane’s Dad and CC’s parents. 💘
Moving forward to group #2, on the #9 tee box (6pm). Jacob Tolbert and Wyatt Dalton are our Golfers… Will hopefully be able to add the Cougars names as well. Ben Joyce and Caleb Vaughn for the visitors…
The lead group started on the #3 tee and are now putting on the 1st green.
Getting to visit with the Robinson duo during the outing and both shared the same thought process…
” Today is about both having fun and gaining experience in regards to actually competing as part of a team.”
Following that same thought process I mentioned that reporting the scores is an option. Today on my end is about recognizing their efforts.
Group #2 has made it back to the 1st tee now, with one hole left to play.
6:18 – Even more parents are now arriving in the clubhouse area to check on their young golfers 🏌️♂️..
Anderson Brim and Ried Corns were the Cougars in Group #1. Kyle Bunn and Gavin Webb for the Cavaliers.
Fun few hours watching 👀 our youth give it their best shot on a difficult layout.
Golf…
If there’s more to add, it will be done shortly !
The all important signing of the scorecards..
Mom’s and Daughters…
Kyle recorded his career low Nine..
September 14, 2024 !!!
Good Morning 🙏, Happy Tuesday !
I wanted to take the time to share a thought about Life and Facebook. Anyone who reads my writing ✍ on a regular basis knows that I believe that the 24/7 World 🌎 that we live in isn’t healthy and I believe Social Media is at the root of a great deal of it.
Sadly, for me anyway, I understand that it is here to stay. My days of trying to fight a battle that I can’t win are numbered now so that helps a little bit.
The idea 💡 to offer $10,000.00 to our High School administrators for the sole purpose of raising the bar on education was something special to Linda and I. The next step 🚶♂️ in the process was to take the idea to Allen Worrell at the Carroll News and our friend did a great job with it.
One of the reasons that the story read so well was Kristen Quesenberry is a bright and articulate young Lady. Fast forward to yesterday afternoon when it was announced that the Football team would be selling off their old uniforms for $10.00 each to raise money 💰 (Great idea, by the way).
It’s easy for anyone who isn’t part of the Football program to feel slighted in regards to their children or their passions. At my last count, 27 people had shared a Post about the old jerseys and 4 people had shared the news about the $10,000.00 for everything not involving. I wish I was making that up….
Why is it important that people know about the program that we started with the help of the School 🏫 staff?
The hope is that others might choose to follow the same path. We live in a time where someone is needing funding for something every minute of every day. That’s just a non-disputable fact. Doesn’t matter which side of the political landscape one stands on, we need money to do everything. Every club, every ball team and everything in between, needs funding to keep the wheels spinning.
We will continue to do our Best at shining a Positive Light on as many people and efforts as possible. We will continue to pray 🙏 for our Administration and our Facility to do the best job possible with our Youth!
[The story about how the parking lot at Cavalier Park is getting paved is a great story because of the inner workings and the people involved. Sadly, it doesn’t hold the interest of many people because it lacks POP.]
