COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL | WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 2019 | 3B LIONS from B1 COTTAGE GROVE from B1 Cottage Grove junior Taylor McVey makes contact against Marshfi eld last Friday. PHOTO BY ZACH SILVA/CG SENTINEL game kind of team. And we’ll compete, especially with Marist and Junction City and Elmira, we play great for like three or four innings and then we have one inning that costs us the game and we can’t recover,” said Toy who used the game against Cot- tage Grove as a way to work on diff erent situations. With two weeks left in the league season, the Lions are looking to fi nish the season out on a positive note, in whatever form that may take. “Just keeping our ener- gy up and that’s kind of the main focus, if we bring the energy, the rest will come,” said Frieze. “Just that in- ner-strength that they have and that growth that they’ve come together and the build- ing of that team spirit and helping to keep lift ing each other up. When one person gets down, don’t let it drag everyone down. Everyone helps to pick that person back up. So I think that’s kind of the main focus going for- ward and whatever we’ve got to do.” On Friday the Lions will host Siuslaw (1-14, 1-8) at home in a double-header. Th e Tigers did exactly that as they paired four hits with three walks and a Cottage Grove pitching change to tally up six runs in the in- ning and take the lead.“We were up 8-3 and it never felt comfortable. It never real- ly does but especially with [Junction City],” said Geisz- ler. “It didn’t feel like aft er the game that we squandered one away. Th ey came back and beat us, they did what they do. Sometimes it feels defl ating aft er a game, man, we just gave it away but it didn’t feel like that… We had chances. So as bad as losing feels, they just beat us.” Heading into Friday’s double-header against Marshfi eld (5-11, 2-7), the Lions knew what they had to do to keep their postseason dreams alive. “We knew that it was a must-win and we didn’t hide that from [the team]. We needed to practice like Friday is our two must-win games and they are and we’re not going to beat around the bush,” said Geiszler. “So we’re either going to come and play well or we’re not. It’s up to you. And they came and I thought we played great.” With Sayles throwing 108 pitches on Tuesday, it meant he was unavailable for Fri- day. Returning from injury, senior Conner Browning got the starting nod in game one. In fi ve innings of work Browning struck out three and gave up seven hits as the Lions cruised along to a 15-5 victory. “He was good. He was im- pressive. I feel like having him, we have two or three more wins on the season. At least one more win in league with him being healthy. But now he’s back and that’s a good feeling to have and it really helps us down the stretch,” said Geiszler. Cottage Grove’s bats were also active in game one led by junior Kellen Bennett with three hits and a pair of RBIs. Iverson Bascue and Hunter Sharkey each record- ed two hits in the game. In game two, it was Sim- mons pitching a complete game as the Lions scored a 6-3 win. While not the dominant game-one perfor- mance, Cottage Grove was able to score when it mat- tered as they recorded two runs in both the fi ft h and sixth inning.

Pisgah nearbynature.org Begin planning kids’ summer Camp now M any families spend winter figuring out how to chase away cabin fever and endure frigid temperatures until spring and summer mercifully return. Parents thinking ahead to swimming pools and days lounging on the beach can put their daydreams to practical use by planning ahead for their youngsters’ summer vacations. Youth summer camps can bridge the gap in care between the end of school and the day when classes resume. Due in part to high demand, parents who want to place their kids in summer rec programs or summer camps should being vetting such programs and camps well in advance of summer. The following are a handful of tips for moms and dads who want their kids to have fun and fulfilling summers. • Ask for recommendations. Speak with fellow parents and trusted friends about where they send their children. Personal recommendations can be very helpful, providing firsthand insight into a particular camp or program. Schedule appointments to visit camps that fall within your budget. Take your son or daughter along so he or she can get a sense of what camp will be like. • Explore all options. Camps come in more flavors than ever before. Certain camps may be faith-based ministries while others may focus on particular sports. Band camps and art camps may appeal to creative kids. • • • • • ! •" Also, there are plenty of general-interest camps that offer various activities without narrowing in on any particular one. Parents may need to choose between a sleepaway camp or day camps, depending on which camp experience they want for their children. • Inquire about camp schedules. While many camps are flexible, day camps do not have the same level of flexibility as after- school programs. Arrangements will need to be made if care is required after regular camp hours. Speak with camp staff to see which types of after-hours programs, if any, are available. • Determine your camp budget. As varied as program offerings may be, camps also can vary greatly with regard to cost. Government-run camps may be less expensive than those offered by private companies. Day camps typically cost less than those that provide room and board. Find out if a particular organization subsidizes a portion of camp costs. Scouting programs often have a dedicated camp and may offer affordable options for scouts. Martial arts schools and dance centers frequently offer camp schedules. If camp seems out of reach, look into local summer recreation programs at parks or schools. Such programs may not be as extensive as those offered by camps, but they can quell kids’ boredom and keep children occupied during the day. In addition to camp, remember to plan for some free days so children can just enjoy some downtime. Such days can break up the monotony of a routine and provide kids and families time to relax together. Summer camp may be far off, but it is never too early to start making summer plans, including finding camps and other activities for kids.
