Clear Lake Area Youth Baseball Association Dugouts
We were proud to support the Clear Lake Area Youth Baseball Association with the addition of two new sets of dugouts at their baseball fields. This upgrade not only provides much-needed protection from the sun but also creates an important space for fostering team camaraderie and bonding. By giving players a dedicated area to sit together, engage with one another, and cheer on their teammates, we help strengthen the sense of community and teamwork. It's through these shared experiences that young athletes build lasting friendships, develop a love for the game, and learn the value of working together toward a common goal—values that extend beyond the field and enrich their personal growth. Community support like this is vital in helping our youth thrive, both in sports and in life.
