Tyrone's First "Miracle League Family"

(Left to right in front row) Marabeth, Kashmirpaige, and Lavender C. with their repective buddies.  Kim C. (mother), Samantha Stalter (2nd year as a buddy), and a rookie buddy Ty Petrola.  Oh, by the way, their game ended in a tie!

 

Saturday, May 3, 2008 was the opening day of Miracle League of Blair County Baseball.  During the first game of season two, Miracle history was made when Blade H. of the Pirates hit the first outside the park home run.  We've had many inside the park home runs, but this was the first one that cleared the left field fence and landed in the parking lot. Two of the Altoona Curve players, Diesel Dog, and Steamer witnessed the history making hit in the game.

Shown is the Curve's Brian Finegan with Blade, who is proudly holding the historical ball.

 

This young man is our first player from Clearfield County.  He and his family come from the Houtzdale area.  He was so excited as his smile indicates.  His entire family has volunteered to coach and buddy for the league.

His name is Nate S. and he's a student at Moshannon Valley Junior Senior High.  He hit a home run the first time at bat and a grand slam homer next time around!

He is shown with fellow ball player Katie B. from Juniata Elementary School, who is equally excited about playing ball.  Katie is a returning veteran!

Thanks for 3 years of helping with Ferner Field 

 

 

The Paper Collection Drive is over. Three years ago this month, Bob Clites began collecting newspapers, books and magazines and sorting them to be taken to the collection point in Altoona, with every cent going to the repair of Ferner Field after the Flood of 2004.  And, so many people joined in the collection drive that the funds continued to be used to help with the maintenance and improvement of the Field.  

But, when Bob's health failed, only Frank Ieraci and his wife were willing to help with the daily collections and the weekly trips to the collection point.  It became too much, so it's now over.  But, thousands of dollars of funds were raised, and we want to congratulate Bob and also Frank for enduring when no one else would help.
