Young man’s leadership inspired collaboration
Robert Bell’s article (May 10) describes an extraordinary and daring young man, Brant Taylor, who inspired our community to collaborate on an endeavor that has truly enriched the physical and emotional lives of youngsters who have limited opportunities to enjoy physical activity.
The Arc of Greensboro is the proud sponsor of the Challenger Baseball League, and we applaud Brant along with the Greensboro Grasshoppers, The Triad Sports Foundation and the city of Greensboro for their generous support and commitment to refurbishing Pomona Field, which now offers a healthy and safe environment for children with special needs, particularly youngsters who are physically frail, to realize their dream of playing Little League baseball. These courageous young athletes have overcome overwhelming obstacles to be recognized as vital members of our community.
Finally, thanks to the N&R for the generous coverage of an amazing story.
