As in years past, the WLL are raising money for a family in need in our Little League- Jaxon Reichley (see post and picture below). We will collect money in the form of cash and/or Venmo before and/or closing ceremonies night. The Washington Little League Venmo is listed below:
Scott Reichley passed away earlier this year from an unexpected medical emergency. Scott helped coach WLL teams for the past 3 years. Scott always had a smile on his face, loved to talk baseball with anyone, and was a great coach in our little league. His son, Jaxon Reichley, has grown up in the Washington Little League and is currently playing in the Pony division. Jaxon is a joy to be around, smiles all the time, high-fives any kid, and is always eager to learn something new with baseball. Jaxon now lives with his grandmother (Deborah Groves). Let’s support Jaxon financially as he navigates the future.
