    Description

    Learn to Make Beep Balls for Blind Athletes

    Our Volunteer group makes beep baseball equipment. They provide all the beep balls, bases, and other equipment for teams of blind beep ball players to participate in a unique and exciting sport. Teams from across America compete in local, regional, and national contests culminating in the World Series. But, we have to keep them supplied with specially modified beeping softballs and bases. We need your help!

    The group is open to anyone interested in doing the simple assembly in a safe and fun atmosphere. No experience is necessary! The program's goal is to get beep balls assembled and learn new skill.
