    Folks, I would like to introduce a group to each of you that is very special to me. Take a look at www.powercross.org. I've been very fortunate over the years and will be coaching one of these baseball teams this year.

    What Jeff and Natalie have done for the last 2-3 years is unreal. Without getting into much detail go check out their site and read the blogs. We have the 2nd annual Christmas party this weekend and I can't wait to see the faces of these fine young men at what they are getting for Christmas this year!

    a little help

    You never cease to amaze me. Coaching that team will be a wonderful experience for you and the boys.

    :two-cents:We as TBR members can help this cause with small donations thru their web site. We have called on our members many times in the past to help with a good cause. Is there any better than this? Giving theese young men a place to go and learn some life lessons thru sport, have a safe place to be and a chance to learn the love of the graetest sport on earth.:idea3:

    Powercross update

    The PowerCross party was simply amazing with many touching messages from Jeff and Natalie. You would not believe what the power of Christ has done for these boys and this organization in just 2 short years.

    Here was the these boys got for Christmas.

    1 Long Sleeve Tshirt
    1 Warm Winter Jacket
    3 day trip to Orlando, FL to Universal Studios and Sea World.

    47 kids getting an opportunity that they would not have had. Exactly what Christmas is about!

    Take a look at their online Blog At http://powercross.blogspot.com/ and watch the video of young Khalil closing the party with prayer.

    If you don't think you can make a difference in a young man's life then ask yourself have you tried!
