Every year Dad is on my mind at our Old Timers banquet... Old Timers Baseball

1/ We were honored to have Ken Griffey, Sr. w/ us on Sunday night for our 86th Annual Nashville Old Timers Banquet! He was a marvelous featured guest as he shared insight into his career, met each scholarship recipient, took pictures & signed autographs afterwards. More photos ⤵️

2/ Although the weather might have kept a few people away, we sold over 350 tickets which allowed us to give away 16 scholarships and provide funding for local ball fields. We’ve been fortunate to have some incredible speakers over the years and Griffey did not disappoint!
