Baptist Easley donates to Liberty High
Baptist Easley Donation
Baptist Easley Hospital recently donated a portable training table to Liberty High School. The gift enables Liberty trainer Brandon Manley to have a safe place to evaluate athletes during contests that occur outside. The table will be used at home and away football games and other home outdoor events. Baptist Easley also donated some of the supplies LHS needed to stock its training room this year. “Liberty High’s athletes will benefit from having this table for use in evaluating injuries,” said Liberty athletic director Sherry Haithcock. “We are very thankful to Baptist Easley for their continued support as we try to get the supplies needed for our athletic trainer. The partnership we have established with Baptist Easley has been a wonderful addition to the community support we have and is certainly appreciated.”Pictured, Manley checks on LHS football player Tanner Chambers as Dr. Lori Carnsew from Liberty Family Care looks on.
