As far as pastimes go in America, it's more or less agreed upon that baseball is a ubiquitous favorite. Thousands of young sluggers take to the field each year around this time to participate in Little League, but after last year's devastation from Hurricane Sandy, some teams in the Staten Island area are struggling to finish the cleanup in time for the first call of "Play ball!" Here at DCH Honda of Temecula, we're proud to announce that our favorite automaker did its parts to help get these kids back on the field.
As the official sponsor of Little League Baseball, the brand recently stepped up to the plate and knocked one out of the park with a $50,000 donation. The funds went toward repairing the bleachers, dugout, and bleachers on the field where the 32-team Staten Island league plays. And with the recent April 20th opening day in the books, the effort was certainly a success.
The brand also raised funds with a "Sing Badly for a Good Cause: Car-e-oke" effort, during which people climbed into the roomy Honda Odyssey, one of our favorite new Honda vehicles, to sing their hearts out for the good cause. The song of choice was "Take Me Out to the Ball Game," of course!
