Hope and Development and NYBSA have initiated a series of baseball clinics in the schools of Villa el Carmen. The clinics, led by Roger B. Keeling (founder of NYBSA and developer of the Milagro del Mar Beach Club at Gran Pacifica), are consistent with the early stages of the Hope and Development community plan and will continue to expand as funding becomes available. The clinics are intended to promote skills development, team building and community awareness/involvement prior to the completion of NYBSA’s baseball complex near Gran Pacifica.
