I am writing to express my profound gratitude for the overwhelming success of our recent Toys for Tots- costs for kids toy drive. This achievement was truly a community wide effort, and I am incredibly thankful for everyone who played a part.

My heartfelt appreciation goes to my dedicated Toys for Tots non-profit team. I am also deeply grateful for the exceptional partnership with Target in Kennewick and their amazing staff, whose support was invaluable.

Most importantly, to every single individual in our community who embraced the spirit of giving, who stopped by for a cup of hot cocoa, and who generously donated or contributed to this vital cause ( thank you) Your kindness and compassion will bring immense joy to local children this holiday season.

A special and profound thank you is reserved for Elvia Soto and Michelle members of softball community , your robust support , dedication and exceptional generosity in toy donations, has been truly impactful. Your efforts have significantly amplified our ability to reach more children and ensure that many young lives are touched by the magic of giving this year. 💙💙

It is with immense pride that I announce the incredible results of our collective efforts:

* **$109.65** in direct monetary contributions has been proudly donated to Toys for Tots.
* **206 brand new toy items** were collected specifically for infants (ages 0-1).

These contributions are far more than just figures; they represent tangible hope, countless smiles, and the powerful spirit of our community coming together. We are ensuring that local children will experience the joy and warmth of the holidays.

With heartfelt thanks,

THE RIP IT 4 RYAN COED CLASSIC

To the dedicated coaches, spirited players, and everyone who joined us for the 3rd Annual Rip It 4 Ryan Coed Classic Memorial Tournament,

As the echoes of this tournament fade, I find myself reflecting on an event that transcended the boundaries of our sport. This tournament was, at its heart, a gathering of community, a testament to our collective spirit, and a heartfelt tribute to those we have lost. We came together not just for the love of the game, but to honor the memory of Ryan and those we have lost, symbolized by the #9, and all lost riders whose lives were cut tragically short.

The message throughout the weekend was clear and critical: the importance of vigilance on our roads. We are all responsible drivers, and the call to "look twice" serves as a powerful reminder that our attentiveness behind the wheel can be the difference between life and sorrow, potentially saving a loved one's life. Thank you for embracing this vital message and helping to spread awareness.

Our immense gratitude goes out to the City of Richland for their unwavering partnership and for providing us with such outstanding fields, allowing us to host this meaningful event year after year.

A special shout-out is also due to my incredible WSL team abd umpires. Your tireless dedication, planning, and collaborative spirit are the backbone of this tournament.

We were also deeply moved by the beautiful tributes offered by Tori and Kylie, whose rendition of the national anthem and reading of the lost riders' prayer touched every heart present. To all the teams, players, and supporters who showed up with such passion, sportsmanship, and unwavering enthusiasm – THAN YOU . Your love and continued support are an immeasurable blessings. While there were moments of overwhelming emotion and minor challenges to navigate, we've gathered valuable insights that will undoubtedly help us grow and enhance our program for an even more impactful tournament next year.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you all so very much. I have no doubt that Ryan was looking down, filled with immense pride, seeing his memory honored in such an incredible and heartfelt way.

With deepest gratitude,

Love Ryan’s mom
Sommer
