Fourth Annual Community Softball Game Builds Unity
|
 Last Thursday, You, Me, We Oakley! (YMWO) and the Oakley Police Department hosted the 3rd Annual Community Softball Game at O'Hara Park Middle School. From the new, to the seasoned softball players, everyone enjoyed the home runs, the strike outs, and the occasional fumble here and there. The rain did not stop the game or enthusiasm. Players, most who didn't know each other previously "teamed up" and quickly learned to work together in order to come out ahead in the friendly completion as the winning team.
