SSFCU Summer Baseball Clinics Tap Sky Sox Players for Morning Fun with Military Kids

(August 20, 2013) -- Colorado Springs Sky Sox catcher Lars Davis explains the finer points of playing ball at a Security Service Federal Credit Union (SSFCU) summer baseball clinic. Two clinics, held at Sky Sox Security Service Field in June and August, brought together 181 youngsters from Peterson Air Force Base, Fort Carson and Fostering Hope for instruction on hitting, pitching, stealing bases and other baseball skills. Towards the end of the morning, Sky Sox Manager Glennallen Hill shared a few motivational thoughts on leadership and achieving one’s dreams. All the children and their parents were then treated to traditional baseball cuisine and an afternoon at the ball game. The events were sponsored by SSFCU, Home Front Cares, Inc, and the Sky Sox baseball team.
