“It’s quite an honor. ... I think it’s also an honor to the people that started the Babe Ruth program in Iredell County."

We are so thankful for Wayne Harwell and all his hard work to keep baseball alive for our youth in Iredell County.

We wanted to give a special thank you to Wayne Harwellll for making this happen for our town and community. It is sad to see credit being taken away from our Babe Ruth Organization when the Iredell County Commissioners refused to partner with us to hold this tournament, but instead charged us to use the fields. The Babe Ruth of Iredell County organization worked hard for this tournament and the state all-star tournament held at the end of June, with no help from Iredell County. Please continue to thank our organization, and especially Wayne Harwell, for all his hard work to keep baseball running for all our kids in the community, and the communities surrounding us with big events like this. Our organization truly hopes that one day our county will see the value in our children and youth sports and truly partner with us.
