Thank you from Cangelosi Baseball

Parents, Coaches, and Kids:

We wanted to tell you all thanks for participating these past two weekends in the Winter Collegiate Development Camp.

Parents, thank you for giving your sons the opportunity and taking the time to get them out there. We try to remind these guys all the time that it is a privilege to get to play this game, not a right and to make sure they realize how much time, money, and effort you guys put into helping create opportunities for their futures. Please never hesitate to contact us for anything we could ever help you with.

High School coaches, thank you for working so hard for so many of these young men. They all gave a great effort, paid attention, and worked their tails off. It is great to see that so many of these kids come from great high school coaches that are teaching them, not only how to play the game but how to be a student of it. Thank you for allowing them to come to this, we trust that it was a great experience for them. Please let us know how we can better help you guys out.

For the kids, thank you for coming eager to learn and ready to work. As coaches, it is extremely refreshing to get young men that have passion for the game. Guys, remember that every time you put the jersey on and strap it up, it is time to improve yourselves. Every day you are either choosing to get better or choosing to get worse. You guys are tremendous young men and represented yourselves, your families, and your high schools proudly. Have a great high school season!

Thanks to the Illinois Sparks organization for their hard work and help with the logistics and organization. I have thanked many of you personally (Billy, Dave, Don, Wayne, Joe, Jim R.), but you guys are first class all the way.

Thanks Ho-Chunk and Fran for letting us invade for two weekends.

It was a great event for everyone involved. The college coaches were nothing short of outstanding and took time to coach individual kids repeatedly. We look forward to them all coming back next year!
