4th Annual OU Baseball Service Project at WSBR
The OU Baseball Team came out for the fourth year to serve others at Willow Springs Boys Ranch. The team did a service project in the afternoon. Work included weedeating around ponds, and the boys homes, cleared trees, mowing, hauling off trash, setting railroad ties along trails, and cleaning up around some new construction. The Sooners ate dinner with the boys and staff of WSBR out at Jacob's Ladder in the evening. The baseball team and coaching staff ended the day doing some team-building on the ropes course.
I am grateful for all that the OU Baseball Team does for WSBR. Sunny Golloway serves on the board of the ranch and is a close friend of mine. I have known Sunny since he coached at Whittier Elementary in Norman back in the early 90's. WSBR has been blessed to have two OU Baseball players volunteer at the ranch. PJ Sandivol is a former player who has served as a relief house parent with his wife, Jacqi, before moving back to California. This year, Stephan Pourlier has volunteered the entire summer at Willow Springs and Jacob's Ladder doing whatever needed to be done. He also spent one week volunteering to spend some one on one time with a young man at the ranch. I appreciate the impact that the Sooners have on WSBR! Thank you players and coaches for another great day today! I appreciate your help, your hearts, and your character!
