“Thank you for 35 years”

As President of the Arizona Major League Alumni it has been my pleasure working with alumni members, and the Valley of the Sun for the past 35 years.

Individuals from professional sports and business have worked as a team with one goal, “To enhance the lives of those less fortunate through the success of our major fund raising “Celebration of Baseball” golf tournament. Over $700,000.00 has been raised to benefit the following organizations, Every Kid Counts, Leukemia Society, Boys and Girls Club, Special Olympics, Major League Baseball Alumni, Baseball Assistance Team, Association of Professional Baseball Players and Arizona Youth Baseball.  A special thank you to corporate sponsors the Arizona Public Service, Arizona Diamondbacks Major League Baseball, Kleven Construction, John F.
