Skokie Little League begins, it's a whole new season

As the mother of 2 Skokie little leaguers, this marks the time when my boys start oiling up their mits, dusting off their bats, and checking to see if last years spikes still fit. The season begins in April, but the talk of batting averages and Earned run averages starts about January 1st. To read more about Skokie little league opportunities, check out http://skokieindians.org/ . I wish all little leaguers and their families a season to remember.
