15th Annual Hit-A-Thon February 18, 2017
We are hosting our 15th annual Elkins baseball family day/hit-a-thon fundraiser. This big event is scheduled for Saturday, February 18 at 10:00am,   The hit-a-thon is a home run hitting contest.  Each player is given 10 pitches to hit and the furthest distance is recorded. As part of the hit-a-thon, all players will be seeking donations to help fund the replacement of decaying field equipment and repair of facilities.  Each player is challenged to raise a minimum of $400.  To achieve this, players are asking family members, friends, neighbors and co-workers to pledge either a flat donation or pledge an amount “per foot” that the player hits during the hit-a-thon (e.g. 250 feet x .10 = $25).  Your donations are fully tax deductible as the Knights Baseball Club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.  Maintaining a program of the caliber that Elkins High School Baseball team has established requires a big financial commitment. Your financial support will help fund field maintenance and needed repairs to equipment.
