REMEMBERING “G” JCA Scholarship Fund:

Alumni vs. Alumni and Father/Son Charity Softball Game

 

Dear Friends,

The JCA 2009/2010 Baseball State Championship team will be challenging their Father’s in a charity softball game on Saturday, August 15, 2015 at Joliet Catholic Academy Varsity Baseball Field.

Part of this year’s charity event is to bring back JCHS, SFA, and JCA alumni to join in and be part of this special day. We are asking for Alumni and/or friends that would like to participate by providing your name and year of graduation to:

Ian Tyrell: (815) 503-1930 (text or call)                         Email:  ityrell71@yahoo.com

Doug Giaudrone: (815) 355-1408 (text or call)            Email: dgiaudrone@hotmail.com

You will be placed on one of two teams based on your graduation year of even or odd.  

Andrew was a very warm, caring and giving man who loved his family, friends and most importantly playing sports. Andrew was part of the 2009 State Championship Baseball team and the fourth place team in 2010, St. Joes Baseball, along with playing JCA Football and Basketball. Andrew went on to play baseball at South Suburban College. On Sept 18, 2011at the age of 20, Andrew’s life was cut short when he suffered a fatal heart attack while playing a pick-up basketball game at St. Raymond’s. Andrew was doing what he loved to do.

Since Andrew’s death, the JCA graduating Class of 2010 has two yearly fund raisers to assist incoming freshman at JCA. Again this summer, the JCA class of 2010 baseball team has scheduled a father/son softball charity game to raise money for the Remembering “G” Scholarship Fund, which has provided over $82,000 to make a young Hillmen and Angel’s dream come true of attending JCA. Please come and watch a fun and friendly game of softball and enjoy dinner, drinks and laughs with friends.
