⚾️ The Watkins Chamber is proud to support our local youth and community by sponsoring one of the Eden Valley-Watkins 10U baseball teams this season!

There’s nothing better than seeing our young athletes build teamwork, confidence, friendships, and a love for the game. We are excited to cheer on these talented players as they represent the EVW community on and off the field.

Good luck this season, team! We are proud to be part of your journey and can’t wait to watch you play ball! ⚾️💙
