The 2015 Bend Elks summer collegiate baseball season starts in three weeks, and the West Coast League team is seeking host families for incoming players.

Families that put up one or more players over the summer, providing a few meals a day, receive free barbecue meals at all Sunday Elks games at Vince Genna Stadium. Host families also will receive team shirts and season preferred tickets, and youngsters could be chosen to serve as an Elks batboy or batgirl.

Those interested in becoming a host family should contact Kelsie Marick at kelsie@bendelks.com or 541-312-9259. The season is scheduled to begin June 5. For more information, visit www.bendelks.com.
