Evan Michael Chambers Feb 1st Kids Camp
Building Champions On & Off the Field – February 1st
On February 1st, we had the incredible opportunity to co-host a youth camp with R2Cares, bringing together young athletes for a day filled with learning, mentorship, and inspiration. This wasn’t just about baseball—it was about developing strong, resilient individuals both on and off the field.
We were honored to welcome an amazing lineup of pro athletes and coaches from Polk County and beyond, including:
🏆 Former MLB pitcher & Lakeland grad Drew Hutchison
🏆 Lake Region grad Ronnie Richardson (Tampa Bay Rays Double-A bench coach)
🏆 Winter Haven grad Jalen Hairston
🏆 Kathleen grad & former MLB pitcher Alan Mills
🏆 MLB strength coach Joey Greany
🏆 Former MLB pitcher Francisco Rosario
🏆 Tampa Prep grad & minor leaguer Jose Peña (born in Winter Haven)
🏆 Former MLB pitcher Pedro Beato
🏆 Former minor leaguer Maleke Fowler
🏆 Local instructors Andre Davino & Reyni Olivo
🏆 Local strength coach Marcus Judd
From mental health discussions to hands-on skills training, the event focused on empowering young athletes with the tools to succeed in sports and in life.
A huge thank you to everyone who supported, coached, and mentored these young players. Your time and dedication help shape the future!
🔥 Stay tuned for more events—because at EMC LOVE Foundation, we’re committed to uplifting, empowering, and guiding the next generation of athletes!
