We want to give a big thank-you to MVTHS Lady Ram Softball alum Jennifer Dagg. She came out to speak to our Lady Bulldog pitchers about taking care of themselves on and off the field. The softball team worked hard this week at open fields, and there is always room for more. We will be back at it next Monday at 9:00 AM.

Happy Independence Day from Bethel Grade School. Be sure to celebrate 250 years of freedom today.
Softball open fields start next Monday at 9:00 AM. Please come to the softball field through the bus gate. Parents, to avoid traffic problems in an already crowded area, please drop off at the gym lobby and have the players walk around. Please bring your gloves and any equipment you use to play. Bring a water container of some kind. We will have cold water for refills.
Construction fencing has gone up around the north side of the building, and visitors will not be able to follow the dog paws to get to door number one. To get to the office this summer, please enter the gated playground to park and enter door number one through the gate.
The 2026 softball schedule is posted to the website and in the app. It features five home games, and we are hosting a small round-robin tournament.
Prospective pitchers are also welcome to attend pitching workouts with Coach Cass tomorrow and Thursday morning at 9:00 in the gym.
