Congrats to baseball team

The citizens of Jackson can stand tall and proud! Their American Legion Junior League baseball team has returned from the plains of Kansas victorious. They have claimed the title of regional champions. This is the highest pinnacle that can be achieved in the junior league. No other Jackson team has been this successful in the program in the 72-year history of local baseball. These fine young men worked long and hard to rise to this level of excellence. It is a testament to the fine character building of American Legion Baseball. Speaking for all the members of Altenthal-Joerns Post 158, we salute you and wish you good luck in the future.

James C. Roche, commander, Altenthal-Joerns American Legion Post 158, Jackson
