Sports Brief: Baseball fundraiser

Posted on March 13, 2008 by Staff

Terry Sturdivant has been a lifelong baseball fan — and a Yankees fan, at that — an act he admits was a bit of rebellion against his father, a Red Sox loyalist.

So when Sturdivant Tire and Auto at White Cross decided to focus its philanthropy, helping local baseball seemed pretty natural.
Sturdivant reports that the annual fundraiser in which he donates 10 percent of new tire sales for high school baseball programs is in full swing with a promised goal of $500 for each school. “We’re doing really well,” he said.

This year, Carrboro High School joins Chapel Hill, East Chapel Hill and Northwood high schools in the fundraiser. Teams have used the money for equipment, jerseys and tournament travel. The special runs through April. Call 942-4413 or visit 942tire.com for information.
