Giants need homes

The San Jose Giants are looking for summer housing for players on the California League Class A ballclub. The minor league team, an affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, needs host families to accommodate players from April 3 through Sept. 10.

Host families will receive a San Jose Giants season pass and parking pass, and there will also be two picnics for families, players and other members of the Giants organization.

"It's a rewarding experience for the whole family," said Linda Pereira of the San Jose Giants. "And it's a very unique experience to get to know the players here then see them go on to the big leagues."

For more information on hosting a player, contact Pereira at 408.297. 1435, ext. 19.
