Donate to AED Fundraiser:
Chaska Baseball has been greatly affected by hearts this year… From losing a board member to watching a NFL football player go down to the Chaska Cubs President be brought back to life with an AED to a baseball mom needing one weeks later… we are teaming up to get AEDs at Chaska Parks during Baseball & Football Events so we can save lives!
