St. Thomas Parish is excited to host the first Kayak for Buddies event June 5-8, 2016 to benefit the Buddy Ball program. Buddy Ball is for boys, girls and active adults with intellectual and/or physical disabilities that have the desire to play organized, non-competitive baseball. Each player is assigned a “Buddy” that assists with playing the game. In Buddy Ball, all players get to hit, all players play the field, all players score, and all players win. Buddy Ball games are 2-3 innings long and last about one hour. Buddy Ball games are played along with other LBYB league games.
Kayak for Buddies will have teams kayaking from Pascagoula to Waveland over the 4 day period, camping overnight and celebrating Mass daily while raising money and awareness for the Buddy Ball Program.
Anyone interested in having a team or assisting please contact Stella Wolf at 228-760-0591 or [email protected].
