Jacob's day with the Mariners




 Jacob was among the chosen few 6th graders from Burke invited to the Mariners vs. Rockies spring training game.  They were able to meet the players, get autographs, tour the clubhouse and weight room, and watch the game, all thanks to a parent of some Burke students who works with the Mariners. Jacob was super excited and couldn't wait for the day to arrive.  It was a Monday, April 2.  At Burke, the kids are given Burke Bucks for good behavior, getting work done, and helping others basically incentive to .  Jacob was able to purchase a bat signed by the Mariner players with the Burke Bucks he earned.  He was able to take the bat with him that day and find and meet some players who signed his bat.  He had an extremely fun day.  What a great experience for him.
