PORT ANGELES — The Olympic Junior Babe Ruth baseball League in Port Angeles is off to a shining start this season thanks to a unique fundraising initiative and the support of local beverage distributor Peninsula Bottling Company.
Youth athletes recently traded their bats and gloves for brushes and hoses, taking on the task of washing Peninsula Bottling’s fleet of semi-trailers, an effort that netted them a significant donation from the beverage company.
The partnership highlights a creative approach to youth sports fundraising and underscores Peninsula Bottling’s commitment to the community. By offering their elbow grease to clean the large vehicles, the Junior Babe Ruth players not only earned funds for their league but also gained valuable experience in teamwork and community engagemen
