An area sports association was able to purchase much needed equipment because of a grant awarded in the spring.  Chris Linnenkamp with the Washington Area Softball Association says they received a grant from the Washington County Riverboat Foundation in May.

He says the grant amount was more than $3700.  Linnenkamp notes it helped to purchase desired equipment and update the concession stands at Stewart and Lincoln Elementary schools in Washington.
