Make a Splash for a Cause!
As part of this special event, we’re hosting a silent auction to support the Buddy League, a Garland-based nonprofit that provides recreational opportunities for children with special needs. 100% of auction proceeds will go toward improving their baseball field, creating a smoother, more accessible playing surface for children who use wheelchairs.
