That's a wrap on the FHRLP class project of 25-26…Batting cages for the Rock Creek ballpark in Saint George.

Our classmates were joined by a few Rock Creek Rec Board members and youth, more than 15 community members who donated their time and talents. The cages look great and we are already getting some pitches thrown while the weather allows.

Simon Sinek popularized the concept of "finding your WHY" and the phrase "start with why," which directly led to the widespread adoption of the question "what is my why". He coined this concept in his 2009 book, Start with Why, and expanded on it in his 2017 book, Find Your Why.
