Softball, seniors and community in Florida
To the editor: On Saturday, July 8, the Florida Softball League, under the guidance of Brain Slattery from the Florida Grill, invited and treated the members of the Florida Seward Seniors to a lovely picnic at JFK Park on Bridge Street in the Village of Florida. The softball league also extended the invitation of the other senior club and seniors from Florida. Approximately 45 seniors enjoyed the picnic. With the price of gas and fuel skyrocketing, many seniors on a fixed income are feeling a big financial impact. Being invited to a small, cozy picnic and an invitation to watch several teams play ball it made the day for many seniors. It was a very nice thing for the league and Mr. Slattery to do for us. On behalf of the Florida Seward Seniors, please publicly thank the Florida Softball League and Mr. Slattery. You made many seniors very happy on July 8. Sincerely, Dottie Ehlers, secretary Florida Seward Seniors
