Volunteering

The hamburger lunches are the main source of revenue to support the Club Operations. They are also a very important service to the Fountain of the Sun Community. All players are required to work all luncheons and enjoy this popular community event and the opportunity to work with their extended softball family. Non-players (spouses, fans, other club members) are welcome and encouraged to volunteer at these events as well!
