This is a great event remembering and honoring three boys who sadly lost their<br>lives in a tragic accident on June 7, 2020: Trevor Ortiz, Jordan Fuelling, and Connor Brite.<br>The event, headed up by a committee of some friends of the boys, along with the three families,<br>would not be a success without the help and support of many! Not only were there fifteen GOLD<br>sponsors at $500 each, but eight SILVER sponsors at $250 each! There were many other generous<br>donations as well. The committee would like to sincerely thank these sponsors and donors once again!<br>We would also like to thank the volunteers the day of the event: Those helping with food, shirts,<br>registering teams, announcing, and umping. Once again, thanks to Sport Form for making the shirts in<br>such a short period of time! Lastly, thanks to all who played or came to support the cause, even in<br>extremely hot conditions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"277\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?resize=640%2C277&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17729\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?resize=1024%2C443&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?resize=300%2C130&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?resize=768%2C332&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?resize=1536%2C665&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/TJC-Wiffleball-All-teams-2024.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sixteen teams played, and it was full of action and great competition!

These proceeds go to the ACCF for annual scholarships in the boys\u2019 names, as well as<br>ongoing renovations at Hanna Nutman Park, a facility where wiffle ball is held, and one where the boys<br>played ball as kids!<br>We can\u2019t thank you enough for the wonderful community support for such a good cause!<br>Be sure to keep your ears and eyes open for next year\u2019s event, which will likely be Saturday, July 12. If<br>you\u2019d like to show support for this cause yet this year, please consider the golf outing on Saturday,<br>August 3. There are also shirts leftover from this year\u2019s wiffle ball. They are marked down to $10. Please<br>contact Becky at (260) 341-3084 if you\u2019d like a shirt!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 5th annual T.J.C. wiffle ball tournament was held on Saturday, July 13, at REV SportsComplex in Decatur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[17,15],"class_list":["post-17721","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-community","tag-community","tag-featured"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17721","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17721"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17721\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17721"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17721"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wzbd.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17721"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
