One pleasure is sponsoring and becoming involved with kids in activities, that are Important to them such as baseball. People, who know us, know that we sponsor many baseball teams, but also that we can be seen frequently at the ball fields. Local leagues in this area are very well organized and coached. Leagues are a great outlet for kids to learn teamwork, camaraderie, responsibility and have good wholesome fun. One league, Interlakes Girls Softball asked if we would host an end of the year party for the teams we sponsored. The families of the team were Invited and everyone had a great time Including our families. Dance, which we have learned is a true sport, is another activity that kids are involved in, is year round, and helps kids learn discipline, time management, physical fitness and fun. This is one reason that we offer to local dance studios, scholarships for those dancers that are deserving and in need. Anyone who thinks that either of these two sports is for one gender should watch a recital or go to the ball fields and you will be educated. We are sure that you will be pleasantly surprised that this can be inexpensive entertainment for you, and exciting to see true talent and skills developing. We hope you can see that orthodontics is more than straightening teeth. It is rewarding personally, and If one gets personally involved enriches everyone.
