Next - Lost Mountain Kiwanis Club Guest Speaker on May 25
I'm doing everything I can think of to help spread the word about the fine student-athletes I have worked with in the last few years in south Cobb County. The baseball players at Osborne High School, Pebblebrook, and Campbell, to name a few, love the game as much as the rest of the county, but can't afford the cost of improvement (lesson, camps, and teams).
After being the guest speaker for a local rotary club and the Lockheed Retirees, I'm excited about being invited to speak to the Lost Mountain Kiwanis Club in west Cobb County on May 25th. I'm also looking forward to meeting with an Atlanta Braves representative this Friday about possibly getting support from the Braves Foundation or MLB.
Please help me find a way to financially support these young men. I'm looking for sponsors, or you can simply donate to my non-profit organization, Fowlkes Baseball, Inc.
My goal is to build a great community relationship with the players who are already working hard to make everyone proud!

As Jeff Frye puts it, the #shegone nation is growing! "People all over the country are on board with our mission to get back to old school baseball!"
What is a Hitting Guru? Why is the Guru named Judy? How did a former major leaguer become buddies with my 11 year old son?
So let me tell you his story. Stan is a huge advocate and supporter of Fowlkes Baseball! The Fowlkes family really owes him a boatload of gratitude.
I'll admit it. I committed a sin! I did something that no other youth baseball coach has ever done. Are you ready for this? I didn't stall.

The son of Tony and Julie became a star the other day. I met mom, dad, and Braylon a few years ago, when they played on the same team that I was helping to coach.
Mom would have been 90 this year, dad 95.
But the spring of 2020, whew… what a year to be alive.
I almost decided not to go to the doctor on Monday morning, September 12, 2005. What if I didn't? I wouldn't be here today!
A few days before my first ever Fowlkes Baseball/End of Summer/Back to School/Sandlot Baseball Game, I was told about an incident that occurred recently at the 2019 Dizzy Dean World Series in Southaven, Mississippi.
