Boys & Girls Club of Whittier was fortunate to receive a generous grant from Albertsons, Vons and Pavilions Foundation Nourishing Neighbors. Every penny will be used to make sure kids have enough food during their summer break from school. Thanks Albertsons, Vons and Pavilions for helping us feed our children. #nourishingneighbors @albertsons @vons @pavillions
Thank you to the Kroger Co. Foundation for supporting our healthy food programs. Kroger is deeply committed to helping drive positive change in its communities. They focus their community efforts on their Zero Hunger / Zero Waste social impact plan.
Two of the most common injuries in youth baseball and softball are known as “Little League Shoulder” and “Little League Elbow,” says Dr. John Mersch, a CHOC pediatrician.
Proper form is essential to preventing these injuries. This means it’s important to have strong lower body and core muscles — not just a strong upper body. For other tips for how to prevent these injuries include adhering to your league’s rules for pitch counts and rest requirements between pitching appearances. Do not switch from one heavy throwing position to another during the game. Always do a proper warm-up and cool down.
Even when taking extra precautions, injuries can still happen. For urgent medial matters, CHOC pediatricians are available at the PIH Health Urgent Care Center in Whittier. For world-class pediatric care in your own backyard, you can find us at 15733 Whittier Blvd. Whittier, CA 90602, daily from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. @bgca @greatfuturesla #BGCofWhittier
