Saugus Varsity Softball Game
To Be Played In Memory Of Lauren Blaire
To Be Played In Memory Of Lauren Blaire
|
January 11, 1998, the Saugus Softball Family lost one of their own. Eighteen year old, Lauren Blaire, a vibrant senior and talented catcher, was killed by a drunk driver while waiting at a red light at Plum Canyon and Bouquet Canyon. In honor of Lauren, the Saugus Softball Program has maintained a scholarship fund in her name. Each year, senior softball players are invited to submit an essay concerning the ongoing problem of drinking and driving and the consequences. The Blaire family and Saugus Softball will sponsor the $1,000.00 Scholarship. A committee, headed by the Blaire Family, will select the outstanding entry and the scholarship will be awarded and presented at the Saugus High CAPR Awards Ceremony. |
On Thursday, April 27, 2017, the Saugus Varsity Softball Team will play a league game against Canyon High School at the Hart Softball Complex at 7:00 pm. The Saugus team will play in memory of Lauren Blaire. There will be a 50/50 raffle to help maintain the scholarship fund. Thanks to our parents, players (past & present), coaches and the Blaire family and friends we are able award this scholarship each year. If you or your business would like to make a donation please send it to The Lauren Blaire Scholarship Fund c/o Saugus Softball Booster Club at 21900 W. Centurion Way, Saugus, CA 91350.
It is a tragedy that such a memorial game should ever take place, however, we hope that those who attend realize the positive impact it provides. The reiteration of the message that “drinking and driving” don’t mix and that Lauren’s spirit is alive on the Saugus softball fields.
Knowledge is Power...Catch It!
