Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I work with a great bunch of student athletes on our school baseball team. Our players work very hard to improve their skills throughout the season.

Portolite Practice Mound will allow our athletes to practice pitching when we are inside and outside.

Ohio springs can have lots of rain which can hinder the practices that our pitchers can get. This indoor mound would allow our pitchers to practice inside in the recreation center or outside without standing in mud.

These would be a huge asset to our team and allow us to quickly improve skills.

Thank you for any support you can provide our team and our Athletic Boosters.
