TCU baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle and his wife, Kami, became interested in pediatric eye care when their own children were treated by Dr. Eric Packwood of Pediatric Eye Specialists.
The genesis of the Schlossnagles" RB Eye Foundation came when Packwood and partner physicians Alan Norman and Michael Hunt founded the Child Vision Center, a nonprofit research and diagnostic center with the goal of advancing world-class eye care for all children. It became a passion for them.
The second annual foundation fund-raiser is scheduled for Aug. 24-26. Events include a mixed doubles tennis tournament at TCU, Aug. 24, a ladies" doubles tennis tournament, Aug. 25, and a dinner and dance, Aug. 26, featuring Texas Red Dirt performer Cory Morrow at River Ranch in the Fort Worth Stockyards.
"The community really came out for our cause last year," Schlossnagle said in announcing the event. "Kami and I truly appreciated the support, and children benefitted from it."
