Frosted Flakes: Plant a Seed
I live in a very small town without a large budget for sports programs and fields. Wesley plays baseball and I just love going to the fields on warm Spring Saturday mornings. As the economy declines across the country so does our towns willingness to give money to our recreation department. I imagine this is a pattern in small towns all across the country. Now our fields must be maintained by volunteers whose own budgets are facing a decline.
Frosted Flakes is launching their own program to help rebuild 50 baseball fields across the country. The Plant a Seed program launches on Super Bowl Sunday with an ad encouraging communities to start rebuilding it's athletic fields "one seed at a time". These fields are where many kids begin to realize their full potential.
You can go to the Plant a Seed website to enter your town's fields into the contest. I know I am!!
Just think that you may be the one to "plant a seed" that will get your town new athletic fields.
Thank you to Mom Central for letting me know about this amazing program.

Sounds like a great program. Sports are definitely not cheap. Jacob also loves baseball and Ryan and I are hoping to enroll him in hockey in the fall.
Hi there, I left you an award over on my blog!
