Join us in honoring Cheri Maples’ path from the ball diamond to the Diamond Sutra on Tuesday, July 2, at 6:00 p.m. with the Madison Night Mares.Cheri (1952-2017) was a powerhouse in the Madison area — from supporting women who experienced domestic violence, to doing anti-racism and restorative justice work as a captain with the Madison Police Department, to her role enlightening others about mindfulness as a dharma teacher in the lineage of Thich Nhat Hanh.
Cheri was also an exceptional athlete, well known as one of the top second base players in recreational leagues in Wisconsin in the '70s. Her dream was to play professional baseball, but that wasn't an option in the pre-Title IX era. Instead, she fulfilled her other dreams of getting a law degree and becoming a peace officer.
Join us in celebrating Cheri’s life as part of the inaugural season of the Madison Night Mares. 50% of ticket sales support Community Shares of Wisconsin, which assists many local organizations near and dear to Cheri’s heart.
🙋 To volunteer to help CSW fundraise at the game, contact Megan Diaz-Ricks at 608-256-1066, ext. 224 or mdiaz-ricks [at] communityshares [dot] com.
