This week's events at Elkton Public School!
Tomorrow (Jan. 11th) there will be two separate sessions for Elkton and Lake Benton students interested in working on baseball pitching skills.
The first session is for players who will pitch from 40-54 feet next season (8U-12U), and runs from 5:00-6:00 pm.
The second group will take place from 6:30-7:30pm for pitchers eligible to play High School baseball this year (grades 7-12).
Students interested in catching are also welcome to attend with their age group.
There is no cost. The sessions will be held at the indoor batting cage area next to the GeoDome. For questions, please email kory.foss@k12.sd.us or check the Elkton-Lake Benton Baseball Facebook page for more details.
