SANFORD — The Seminole High School Baseball team has been hard at work giving back to the community and making a difference in society. In the last year the program has given over 300 hours of service to the local community. Just last week, the team had participated in the 6th annual Chili Cook-Off at Alive after 5 to help raise money for the Chris Elliott Fund as part of an awareness effort and a way to make a difference in brain cancer. The event helped raised $4,700 and the pot of chili the Fighting Seminoles entered in the cook-off and placed 3rd. "This is a very special group of young men," stated Seminole Head Coach Justin Frost. “After winning a gift card the team decided to give it back so it can be auctioned off to help raise more money for the event. Lessons like this are far more important than the game of baseball. This is more about the game of life and our goal is to help mold these student athletes into becoming good young men.” Every varsity home game this season will be an "appreciation night" honoring the local community groups that really go above and beyond to make a difference in our community every day.
