Attention youth baseball and softball families. There is an opportunity to bring in gently used equipment to share with other families to help offset the cost of equipment. Please consider bringing old equipment that no longer fits your child or you're not using to the scheduled parent meetings for summer baseball (April 11) and summer softball (April 15). Please note, this is not a garage sale and there will be no exchange of money. We're simply looking for donated items that could help other families in an "equipment swap." GO CUBS! #KimballCommunityEd #StrongerTogether
