We owe big thanks to everyone who came out to the ballgame on Saturday, Sept. 15th to celebrate Yes, And...eXercise! We had over 30 friends and family in our suites, terrific food and we saw the home team Round Rock Chupacabras hit three home runs en route to a solid 7-3 thrashing of the visiting Las Vegas Aviators. We were also privy to a post game drone show that put the LED eyes of Texas in the sky, drawing big cheers and showing us some colorful tech beauty.
Thank you, too, to all the staff with the Round Rock Express who helped organize all the details, and get people into the ballpark.
We owe our biggest thanks to our sponsors, Medtronic and Boston Scientific, for saying Yes, And to this fundraiser.
With their help we were able to raise just over $4000 on the night which will help us continue to offer storytelling and improvisation classes that improve quality of life.
Report from Susan Scarlett, YAX's official First Follower:
⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️30+ people from different groups mixing with each other; nice connections made; a bounty of good food; great weather (almost everybody sat outside instead of in the air-conditioned suite); the home team won ... and, thanks to our sponsors, we hit a home run from a fundraising standpoint! ⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️
And, from Bob Kamper, our local PD Artist:
I attached some photos from Friday night, and one surprise found while scanning old family photos...
1. batter up
2. the wind up
3. the pitch
4. the bat and ball after contact
5. Two Cool Chicks (with a nod to Leiber & Stoller and The Coasters)
6. An old scan from Kissimmee Florida of a place that I used to drive past - never did go in to check out their inventory...
This looks like a lot of fun in the sun. All the happy people with PD brought together for a great cause. The candid photos are often the most fun. I'm glad to read about this great success. With people who live near and far meeting and making new memories.
Whoops! got the wind up and the pitch backwards, and 5. Two Cool Chicks (with a nod to Leiber & Stoller and The Coasters) appeared earlier in the blog. Ah-oo-gah! or just plain
