Need some yard work done? Call RCTC
Have yard work? You can hire Rochester Community and Technical College baseball and softball players to do the work for you.
"We have many young people who are ready and willing to do whatever task that you may have for them," RCTC head baseball coach Steve Hucke says. "No task is too big or too hard for our teams to help you out."
The donation is $5 hour for each athlete or a flat donation.
The proceeds will help pay for the cost of the baseball and softball teams' spring trips to Florida (baseball) and South Carolina (softball).
The event will take place the weekend of Nov. 6-7. Call the RCTC athletic office at 507-285-7273 to set up an appointment on one or both of those days and specify how many athletes will be needed.
