Annie had a blast in her baseball camp. The non-competitive camp was coached by Waldorf teacher David Darcy and included children ages 6-10. Annie was so sweet. The first time she was up to bat she hit the ball and stood there with a lovely smile on her face. The kids told her to run, which she did with the bat until someone told her to drop it. She made it to first base. The next kid hit the ball and Annie just stood there. He was headed toward her on first base. The kids were shouting for her to run and she ran right across the field directly to third base. The sweet thing is that none of the kids laughed or yelled at her they just reminded her to go to 2nd base then 3rd. By the end of the first day she had this game down. This was exactly the environment she needed to learn baseball in. No pressure or embarrassment. Just sweet children guided by a gentle coach.
