Baseball Hurlers Begin First Outdoor Practices
Last week all baseball candidates reported for suits and had their first outdoor workouts. Coach Alldread plans Tuesday and Thursday sessions before noon to improve fundamentals and individual skills. Twenty-one players return from last year with three new members, plus more pitchers and catchers boosting depth. A funding shortfall from a recent fundraiser will be covered by selling season tickets at 50 cents each for five home games. Season opens against Harrison with Evart next, then four conference games against Evart and Gladwin. Schedule lists nine games and location notes with some venues TBA.

Last year many brush fires started without permits, resulting in firefighting costs. Permits are free and obtainable from conservation officers, fire wardens, towermen, or by calling Gladwin or Baldwin headquarters.
