Candee Boys: Fueling Dreams, One Base at a Time!

Friends and Family,

Braeden and Conner Candee here! We are so excited to share some incredible news with you! The Santa Monica Baseball Academy has invited both of us to join their team for an unforgettable journey to the hometown of the Baseball Hall of Fame – Cooperstown, New York!

We can hardly believe it – this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! We absolutely love baseball, and being part of a team fills our hearts with joy and a sense of belonging. This is a chance to represent our community on a national stage …is beyond anything we ever dreamed of.

Cooperstown is where the history of baseball lives and breathes, where all the legendary players have left their mark. (Not to mention it’s really close to where our Dad grew up!!) We imagine ourselves stepping onto those hallowed grounds, with our heads held high, and making our mark too. It's a dream come true for us!

But, here's the thing—as much as we wish we could handle the costs ourselves, and sell a million chocolate bars (hard thing to sell to the green juicers in LA)—the trip is quite expensive. We've been working hard to save up, but we really need your help to make this dream a reality. This is our last chance to attend the Cooperstown tournament, as next year we will be “too old” and we really don't want to miss out.

For us, baseball isn't just a game; it's a passion that fuels us and pushes us to be better every day. We've learned so much about teamwork, sportsmanship, and never giving up. The values we've gained on the field extend to every aspect of our lives, and we can't thank our coaches and supporters enough for helping us grow into the young men we're becoming.

Your support means the world to us, and we hope you'll consider contributing to our goal. Your belief in us will give us the confidence to step onto that field in Cooperstown and show the world what we're made of.

Thank you so much for being a part of our lives and for supporting us in chasing our dreams. Together, we can fuel our dreams, one base at a time, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Gratefully,

Braeden and Conner Candee

P.S. Yes, our mom helped us with the adjectives, but this comes from our heart.
