His sponsors were Sue, and Dan Holeck. the King church to begin warming up for their game. Instead of warming up, they joined their manager and coaches in a clean up detail of the field. I am one of those people who enjoy seeing children having a good time, so even though neither of my boys play in the minors, I was there to see the game. I had a sick feeling when I saw what the boys had to go through before they could start the game. Broken beer bottles with small pieces of glass completely covered the infield. Home plate was stolen and the pitching rubber was found thrown in the weeds. Beer cans and litter, enough to fill two large garbage bags, had to be picked up. What can be in the minds of some people who would do such a thing? It gave us all a feeling of anger and then sorrow for people with such sick minds. Members of the Boys' Baseball work very hard each year raising money to maintain the fields and the parents put in many hours doing the manual labor it requires. In a matter of minutes this can all be destroyed. It might not seem like much to some careless, non-thinking individuals, but the home plate that will now have to be purchased, will take more money froi$ the treasurey that was definitely not needed. A child could have been -r t;f injured greatly by sliding into a base where small pieces of glass were imbedded in the ground. Luckily, the boys did a good clean-up job and the game was enjoyed by all, but I'm sure the memory of the destruction will linger in all of our minds ̂ BLOOD BANK The Wonder Lake Jaycees are sponsoring a Blood Bank program on Saturday, July 14, from 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m. at Nativity Lutheran church.
