Record Goes to WBC Title Game in Miami

Jennifer Baur and Dennis Hellwig of La Grange had front row seats at the World Baseball Classic championship game last Tuesday in Miami. They took a copy of The Fayette County Record along for the fun. They also recently supported LG Little League at their annual fundraising event. They were the winning bidder for the new scoreboard sponsorship, doing it in honor of Dennis’ recently passed father, Spencer Hellwig. Even if you don’t know Jennifer and Dennis you’ve probably seen their handiwork. They display the Christmas tree and Valentine’s Heart each year on the bluff above Camp Lonestar that can be seen driving south over the river bridge.
