The FuTure red TOrnadO InITIaTIve - STePPIng uP TO The PLaTe TOgeTher! ///
lancaster rec, saint Joseph Catholic Cluband salsa baseball organizations are joiningforces to get more children outside and active.
Coming together, we have created lancaster baseball.our mission is to develop and enhance the skills, mental
discipline, character and self-confidence of youth
through the sport of baseball.
Play starts at ages 5 and 6 with coed tee ball, and
progresses to coed rookie ball for ages 7 and 8, and
lancaster County youth baseball league for ages
9 to 14. teams practice and play at davey arnold,
lancaster Community Park, st. Joe Catholic Club
and other school district of lancaster ball fields.
the Millersville university baseball coaching staff trains
all volunteer coaches to ensure boys and girls learn the
proper skills, stay safe on the field, and have fun. the
McCaskey high school coaching staff conducts clinics
and skill assessments so that children are placed on
teams where they will have the best opportunity for
success. Children of all skill levels are encouraged to
play. lancaster baseball was formed so that all children
are challenged when they step up to the plate but
not discouraged. all children are prepared to play and
are positioned for wins and losses in their season.
lancaster baseball is the only baseball club available
in the school district of lancaster. to participate in
lancaster baseball, children must live within the school
district of lancaster boundaries, including homeschooled
children, or attend lancaster Country day school.
lancaster baseball is a concentrated effort to
improve the experience of youth baseball in
the City of lancaster and lancaster township
through the Future red tornado initiative.
We need your help to get children off the sidelines and in the game!
lancaster rec is asking
you to consider making a gift to the Future red
tornado initiative to keep these programs growing.
What is the Future red tornado initiative?
the Future red tornado initiative (Frti) is a focused
initiative, powered by the lancaster recreation
Commission, to allow all children the opportunity to
play youth sports.
how will lancaster rec accomplish the goal to double the number of youth participating in sports in lancaster City/township in the next five years?
lancaster rec intends to accomplish its goal in three
main ways:
1. Collaborate with community organizations to provide
programming to more children than ever before.
2. train coaches and staff so children have a great
experience in youth sports programs.
3. raise funding for the youth sports scholarship
program so more children can have access to
affordable and even free programming.
4 / Register at LancasterRec.org
When did this initiative begin, how much has been invested so far and how many children have been served?
the Future red tornado initiative officially began in
april 2015 when lancaster rec signed a Memorandum
of understanding with the school district of lancaster.
since then, lancaster rec has invested more than
$75,000 and more than 3,000 children have participated
in sports programming through lancaster rec
programs or those of our community partners.
hOw Can I heLP?
• a gift of $50 can subsidize dance lessons so a little
girl can be the ballerina she’s always wanted to be.
• a gift of $75 can provide a free swimming lesson
to a little boy. this skill could save his life.
• a gift of $100 means 15 more children can play in
our flag football league, where boys and girls learn
discipline, gain confidence and foster pride in their
community and themselves.

Summer 2017 Activities Guide / 7
Dear Mom,
Thank you for sending me to Camp Optimist! It’s my favorite place!
Every day we go to the pool. and I love to swim! I’ve made so many friends. This week, I learned to sing three new songs around the camp fire. Yesterday, we built a fort and made slop soup! I’m growing tomatoes in the garden next to the barn. I can’t wait to go back to camp tomorrow.
Love, Marisol
tucked away in an old barn in Conestoga Pines Park off of Pitney road is one of lancaster’s best kept secrets.
it’s a place where long summer days are spent playing in the woods, swimming, making crafts and singing camp
songs. it’s a throwback to simpler times and the lazy days of summer.
Camp optimist, or “Camp o” as it’s nicknamed, has been held every
summer since 1957. today’s Camp o continues the traditions it was
founded on – the freedom to play and just be a kid, the opportunity to
experience nature and a unique setting to make lasting friendships.
home base for Camp o is a large, two-story barn. Conestoga Pines Park
has open fields for play and woods that the kids explore every day.
Children attend field trips to local attractions like Knoebel’s
amusement Park, lake tobias Wildlife Park, refreshing
Mountain resort Zip lining adventures and many more! Weekly
themes like under the big top, Pay it Forward and dragons,
amphibians & reptiles make camp exciting and fun.
this one-of-a-kind adventure camp will inspire a lifetime of memories
for your camper! see page 6 for dates and prices.

issues that concern you as a senior or a blood

community involvement and wellness. We offer
quality opportunities to learn, stay fit, improve health
and most importantly, laugh and have lots of fun.
