Psalm 42:11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

The Hokie team is coached by Chris Carter, and the roster is full of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders.
Twelve players dot the roster with the makeup ➗️ between boys (7) and girls (5). One of the five girls 👧 is one of our nine grandchildren, Maddie.
The group plays in two different seasons of the year, so this is the seventh time that Chris has coached this particular group of youngsters.

Celebrating the Life of Roy Cardin Senior with Brian “Big Daddy” Hendrick, Alan Knight and Linda Carter
Roy Cardin Sr was a throwback to days gone by, very much like Moonlight Graham was described in Field of Dreams. Roy gave of himself for just over three full decades and was the mentor / pitching Coach for the program for ever and a day.
We are dedicating the Page County third of our Book 📖 to the memory of Roy, who was famous for his Secret Sauce for his fund raising Bar – B – Que Chicken 🐔, his kind heart, caring voice and never take a dime for a lesson mindset.
There’s a youth ballpark in the town of Shenandoah that will forever have Roy’s name on it. Field #2 will remind every child learning the game today, that the facility is named after a Kind, Kind Man that touched the lives of thousands.
Impact versus Rapids was full on end to end action 🎬
The opportunity to see 👀 our Son, Chris coach up one of his youth Soccer teams did the heart ❤ good !
The next few days will be spent up here in Page County as we gather information about the Lady 👩 Panthers Softball program. The bonus being time with four of our nine Grandchildren, one of our five Children and one of four In-Laws !
Hoping that the Powder Puff game is going well and Fun is in abundance !!
