Astros Foundation makes history in Kingwood MLK Day
There's a lot of progress being made at the Forest Cove community fields.
It’s January, and at the start of this new year, the Kingwood/Forest Cove Baseball Association (KWFCBA) fields on Forest Cove Drive off of Hamblen Road look great – a far cry from the way they looked after the devastation that Hurricane Harvey left behind.
Volunteers from The Astros Foundation came to Kingwood on their Martin Luther King, Jr. (MLK) Jan. 15 holiday to roll up their sleeves and continue to do much-needed field repairs. The volunteers said they’re continuing the Astros tradition of a day of service to commemorate MLK Day, and they’re happy to be able to get the 700 youth players in Kingwood ready to play ball.
