New Baseball Academy Now Enrolling T-Ball to College Players

The Lumber Yard Baseball Academy is a not-for-profit baseball academy that was founded in 2007 by Greg Bogard and his wife Tammy. They founded the academy as a way to give back to baseball communities for the hours and years of baseball enjoyment that their family has received from baseball.

The Lumber Yard is a family oriented baseball academy that is set-up to provide a family environment in an air conditioned facility, while both baseball and softball players improve specific skills of their game. From pitching, to fielding and hitting the Lumber Yard is a full service academy. Kids from t-ball through high school, college and adult leagues the Lumber Yard has something for you.

The Lumber Yard is equipped with Iron Mike style pitching machines that give hitters a realistic pitching experience, ranging from 40 mph to 70 mph. An instruction room is separate from the hitting tunnels so players can go with a professional instructor and work on specific skills in a quiet atmosphere. Our summer and fall high school teams travel to Collegiate Showcase Tournaments across the southern states to showcase high school players talents to both college and professional scouts. These teams start as freshmen and continue through their senior year.

If you are a baseball or softball player there are skills you can work on at the Lumber Yard. Contact us at 512-990-YARD (9273) or visit www.thelumberyardatx.com to set-up a lesson or cage rental.

Going out to eat?

Seasonal allergies got you down?

Then take your mother's advice to "eat right and keep your nose clean!" Seasonal allergies can cause the body's immune system to kick itself into a state of overdrive. If you want to unstick it and lose the inflammation in that nose of yours, then try following these tips.

First, eat healthier foods that can actually stomp out inflammation...in other words, lose the refined, sugary or processed foods. For example, opt for wheat toast instead of that donut.

Second, eat more essential Omega 3 fatty acids. You can find these in foods such as flax seeds, fish oils, almonds and walnuts. These are high in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and studies are linking improvements in allergy symptoms of people whose diets are high in ALA. Third, try adding probiotics to your diet. Probiotics contain live enzymes that keep the gut full of good flora and the inflammation down. A supplement (such as acidophilus) can help the immune system to better handle all those allergies. Fourth, literally wash that nose of yours out and get rid of the allergens that can get trapped in mucus. Forego the washcloth and opt for a more sanitizing method known as the nasal neti pot. This little teapot shaped wonder uses water and non-iodized salt to cleanse the nasal passages without the use of any drugs!

Last, try giving Homeopathy a try. Homeopathic remedies are small doses specific to the symptoms you are suffering from and have the potential to "knock out" those symptoms from your body without allergic reactions. Homeopathic remedies for allergies also come in customized dosages made expressly to help with Texas trees (Cedar fever) and weeds. Using these with a nasal neti pot can increase your chances of feeling relieved of allergy symptoms even more!

At DIVINE LIGHT HERBAL CENTER we carry nasal neti pots, homeopathic remedies, probiotics, essential Omegas and other herbal allergy supplements to get you on the road to leaving those pesky allergy symptoms behind.

Something For Everybody In The Family (Collectible Caboose)

The idea for The Collectible Caboose started over 10 years ago when Craig Berry picked up his old Lionel train set from when he was a kid and decided to start playing with trains again. He and his wife, Elizabeth, had already started a Department 56 Village collection so they decided to add a train to their growing village. As they continued to add to the train and village display, they felt that it would be fun someday to open a retail store that focused on trains and Department 56.

Craig had spent over 15 years in the high-tech industry. When Austin’s high-tech bubble burst in 2002, the small software company that Craig worked for went out of business. He felt like God had laid the opportunity in his lap and so he decided that there was no better time than the present to look into making his dream a reality. So he began to look into what it would take to start a new retail business. He knew he couldn’t succeed without Elizabeth’s help, so she told him that if he wanted her help, then he would have to let her carry something that she was interested in.

Thus was born two stores in one: a model train hobby shop coupled with an exquisite gift and collectibles shop – truly something for everyone in the family!

The result is, almost 5 years later, Craig and Elizabeth have created a unique atmosphere in The Collectible Caboose that attracts young and old, male and female, hobbyists, collectors, curiosity seekers, and anyone looking for any occasion gifts.

Craig’s train selection is the largest in the Austin area featuring G, O, On30, HO and N gauge model trains. He also carries most train modeling necessities. Craig’s mission is to cater to everyone from the serious modeler to the recreational train lover. Throughout the store, Craig and his staff have set up 5 operating model train layouts. For the young train lovers, there is a Thomas the Tank Engine section just for them to play in and browse the current and new products.

On Elizabeth’s side of the store, The Collectible Caboose is the only Gold-Key Department 56 dealer in the Austin area. She has put together the largest selection of Christopher Radko ornaments, Jim Shore’s Heartwood Creek figurines, Willow Tree Angels, The Painted Ponies and Hot Diggity Dogs. She also carries Tyler candles, LampeBerger lamps and fragrances, a great selections of A&M, UT, and Texas Tech merchandise, a large selection of unique crosses and many other great gift items. They also carry the best selling Webkinz by Ganz.

This shop is a really unique store for Central Texas – a true “Mom & Pop” family business. Any given day you may meet Craig, Elizabeth, one of their kids, or other members of their family from across Texas. Any many customers have become good friends, too.

Finally, the Berry’s enjoy finding new ways to make their customers come back again and again. There is always something new and unique in their store. Craig and Elizabeth would love for you to stop by anytime and take a look.

Collectible Caboose is located on 1431 in the RailYard Shopping Center across from the Cedar Park post office.
