Description
For more than a century, the Chatham-Kent Barnstormers have brought baseball to their community. Today, more than 150 Knights of Columbus volunteers from 10 councils make every game possible—from preparing the field to running concessions and selling tickets. Their service turns every game into an opportunity to support local charities, including the Coats for Kids program, which has provided more than 20,000 coats to children across Ontario.
Le baseball renforce les liens communautaires
Depuis plus d’un siècle, les Barnstormers de Chatham-Kent font vivre le baseball au sein de leur communauté. Aujourd’hui, plus de 150 bénévoles des Chevaliers de Colomb, issus de 10 conseils, permettent la tenue de chaque match, qu’il s’agisse de préparer le terrain, de tenir les stands de restauration ou de vendre des billets. Leur engagement transforme chaque match en une occasion de soutenir des associations caritatives locales, notamment le programme « Des manteaux pour les enfants », qui a permis de fournir plus de 20 000 manteaux à des enfants de tout l’Ontario.
