“We keep all the money within a certain radius of the community for kids in sports, playgrounds, recreation,” Steigerwalt said. “We encourage any presidents or leaders of those types of organizations to approach us if you need help funding a project or equipment repairs or equipment replacement or field upgrades. As long as it is equipment or field safety, things to make a sport enjoyable and safe for a young child, we’re always willing to help.”

Steigerwalt thanked the event’s participating sponsors and contributors, “especially those who have continuously helped us over the years.”
