Guest guest Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hello Everyone: My name is Reilly and I am co-chair of a group of volunteers to bring a Miracle League facility to Miami Dade County. Below is a snapshot of our efforts. Please spread the word to others that may be interested or that may benefit from our project. Projected opening of the facility will be the second half of 2012. Best regards, ======================================================== The Miracle League of Miami Dade is a newly formed organization of volunteers from Coral Gables, Pinecrest, and Palmetto Bay that is in the process of raising the funds to build a baseball facility that removes the barriers keeping children with special need disabilities off the baseball field and enables them to fully enjoy America's favorite pastime. A barrier for these children arises from the natural grass fields used in conventional youth leagues. Miracle League teams play on a specially designed, rubberized turf field that accommodates wheelchairs, walkers and is designed to help prevent injuries and promote fun! Presently there are 235 Miracle Leagues in North America. The Miracle League of Miami Dade became the 236th. To learn more about our project: Please visit The Miracle League of Miami Dade at www.miracleleagueofmiamidade.org The Miracle League's corporate site can be found at www.miracleleague.com Miracle League Buddies (Kids helping Kids) is another aspect of the program . Our friends at The Miracle League of Westchester, NY produced the following video and can be viewed at Thank you ahead of time for any interest or suggestions regarding this project.
