Riptide Community Closet

🚨🚨🚨 Urgent 🚨🚨🚨need for high school softball 🥎 stuff from a single parent. I don't normally share background, but one parent is holding the kids' sports equipment hostage during a contentious divorce. Kids should NEVER suffer for the nonsense of adults. Softball season is in full swing, so this needs to come together this weekend. I need a 34" 25 Oz.-9 bat, amongst other items. If you're willing to donate, please let me know ASAP so I can go get things today. You can venmo khappel4. Thank you for supporting our local youth!
