The SATF Employee Activity Committee hosted the softball tournament in Corcoran with five staff teams.

Taking the lead on organizing the tournament were Gabriel and Julie Lujan, SATF employees.

Corcoran High School Baseball team worked the snack bar offering food and refreshments to the participants and family members in attendance.

The day started with SATF employee John Gallegos singing the national anthem and acting Warden Raul Morales throwing out the first pitch.

Warden Morales thanked everyone for coming out and for the volunteers who assisted at the tournament, while giving up time from their weekend.

The tournament is one more example of SATF working with the Corcoran community to bring everyone together.
