Message from Sheldon Baseball

Hello Irish Families,

We will be hosting a camp on our no school day for everyone that is wanting to get some baseball work in next Wednesday 11/11/26.

I know there is a lot going on this time of year, so we understand if you can't make it.

We will be having camp for all ages K-8th from 12-2pm at the Sheldon High School hitting facility

The cost will be $30.  But we never want a cost to be a factor for coming to camp.  If anyone cannot pay, just let coach Vogel know and we will make sure that you can still come to camp

Here is the link to the google form we will use to get kids signed up


Please share this link with anyone that may not have got this email and we will get their email added to our email list.

We will also be holding our traditional camp that we have done the last three seasons on the Monday and Tuesday of Thanksgiving (11/23 and 24) and both of the Monday and Tuesdays of winter break. (12/21 and 22 / 12/28/29). Those camps will also be 12-2pm.

Those camps will be $75 a camp for the two day sessions and if you sign up to do both camps we will charge $120.  Those links will come out later. 

Thank you everyone for all the hard work you do for our players.

Any questions, feel free to email me 

Go Irish !!
Coach Vogel

Lane Arts

Do you know youth who are creative, inquisitive, builders, makers, artistic, or would thrive in a hands-on learning experience?

The Design Arts Apprenticeship pairs Lane County middle and high school students with a professional designer for 25 after-school hours, over a 10 week period for a FREE, direct, hands-on learning experience. In small groups, students will work alongside their mentor to understand the profession, explore specific ways to approach design, and begin creating their own project, resulting in an end of term showcase where all students will have the chance to present their work to the public.

There are programs in Beyond the Click (Photography), Upcycle Fashion Design, Digital and Physical Design, Biomimicry, and Zine Creation.

NO EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY.

If your student is interested in applying for the Winter 2027 term of the Design Arts Apprenticeship,  applications are now open until December 18, 2026. Email artsed@lanearts.org with any questions.
