Description

The Noel Program at Gardner-Webb University will host the 20th annual Beep Ball game on Friday, Oct. 28 at 6 p.m. at the John Henry Moss Baseball Stadium, in conjunction with other Homecoming events. Gardner-Webb and the Boiling Springs community are invited to enjoy a different kind of softball, one that raises awareness about the challenges that face blind and vision-impaired individuals. Sighted players must wear blindfolds while trying to hit a beeping ball, run to beeping bases, and decipher instructions shouted to them by sighted spotters.
