Jarren McTee laughs as he rounds the bases for the opening of the Jarren’s Day softball tournament at the Spain Complex. He is cheered on by the crowd, his cousin Randi Fetty and mom Jenger McTee along with other family members. The weekend contains a softball tournament, a glow-in-the-dark 5K run, a corn hole tournament and a motorcycle ride to raise funds to help with medical expenses. The 10-year-old has hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). For additional photos see the June 29 edition of The Farmersville Times or click here for the e-Edition.
