The Miami Lakes Optimist Club will be holding registration for its 49th fall baseball and softball season on three Saturdays, July 29, August 5 and August 12, from 9:30 to 1 p.m. at the new clubhouse, 6411 N.W. 162 Street.
Boys and girls between the the ages of 5 and 16 must bring a copy of their birth certificates at the registration and a $150 fee.
The regular season starts on Saturday, September 9.
Miami Lakes Chevrolet has been a long-time sponsor for the Optimist Club’s baseball and softball programs by donating $500 each season to help keep the programs running.
Eddie Seijo, sales manager for Miami Lakes Chevrolet said, “Once again we are proud to sponsor the Miami Lakes Optimist Club. We are happy to sponsor this year and looking forward to sponsoring them next year.”
Seijo said Miami Lakes Chevrolet has donated an estimated $15,000 over a 10-year period to the Optimist Club to help keep its baseball and softball programs running.
“The Optimist Club would like to thank Miami Lakes Chevrolet for its continued support and sponsorship that help purchase baseball and softball equipment,” said Jim Hamilton, a longtime Optimist Club member. “Without their support, it would make it much more expensive to operate both programs.”
