Special Needs YMCA Baseball Leauge Becomes Part of Miracle League, Gets a New Field
Thursday February 19, 2009
Special needs baseball teams at the YMCA in Onalaska, WI will be joining the Miracle League and getting a customized field. Plans were announced at a press conference where the orignal 9 league players were joined by major league baseball players: Minnesota Twins hall of famer Harmon Killebrew and Milwalkee Brewer & Arizona Diamond Backs local great Damian Miller.
The new league has almost half the money needed to complete the project. The Harmon Killebrew Foundation, the Miracle League and many community organizations are helping to fund the new field and give more children the opportunity to play baseball.
