Thank yous, all around!
To the editor:
Lots of big thank you to some generous people. The Pine Island Little League’s concession stand has a super duper Movie Theatre Popcorn Machine, thank to the Bobby Holloway Board. When asked for the funds to give our concession stand an added treat, they did not hesitate. We, (parents, grandparents, and visitors) thank you, and, of course, the kids thank you! Also, Pine Island Pizza stepped up to the plate and donates their delicious pizza every Tuesday and Thursday game nights. Parents are thrilled they don’t have to cook. Yummy!
I would also like to thank, Steve Cox, Lee County Parks and Recreation Department, for giving our concession stand some much needed maintenance. It looks great! Another big thank you to Mel Meo who painted the Bobby sign and made our menus. And D&D Matlacha Bait and Tackle for donating cheeseburger sliders, boxes and skittles and hot dogs. Yeah!
On another note, my grandson, who now plays ball, brings back memories when my son played on the same field 30 years ago. So, I try to help out as much as I can. Did I say help? Yes, Little League is always looking for coaches, umpires, announcers, scorekeepers, concession help and fans to cheer them on. So, come on out for some pizza, popcorn and fun!
Game nights are Monday (Majors), Tuesday and Thursday (Minors) at 6 p.m. and T-Ball Tuesday and Thursday at 5:30 p.m.
