To the editor,

The state softball tournament held here May 23 and 24, was without a doubt a great team effort of the City of Selah, the business community, members of the Selah school district officials, grounds people and anyone who had anything do with making it the  best state tournament in the last 20 years and maybe ever.  Our fields were the best in the state and our caretaker was the greatest.

With this state tournament Selah may be placed on the map as the City of Softball.

A great deal of thanks should go to Mike Lewis  who was the coordinator, Jeff Hagler, who I believe was the coordinator for the city and the leaders of the city for making things happen.  A BIG THANK  YOU.

Our businesses who gave in many different ways; one example, Magic’s Pizza stayed open nearly two extra hours so a coach could feed his  team––they were really impressed––so am I.  Thank you.

I just wanted to thank each and everyone who had  a part in making this happen.  This is a lot different than the first time we went to state and I was asked what is Selah. Now they know it is the home of softball and a community that is second to none.
