Silverleaf has been providing quality family vacations since 1989. Our original seven resorts were located in Texas and Missouri. After we moved from a privately held company to a public company in 1997, we added resorts in additional states. In 1997, Silverleaf added Fox River Resort in Illinois and Timber Creek Resort in Missouri. In 1998 we added Oak 'N Spruce Resort in Massachusetts. In 1999, we opened Apple Mountain Resort in Georgia and in 2000, we added Seaside Resort in Texas. In 2005, we added Orlando Breeze in Orlando, Florida to the Silverleaf family, and lastly, The Pinnacle Lodge, in Winterpark, Colorado opened in 2006. We continue to look for opportunities to grow and to provide better services to our members with each new year including new resort locations, additional services or unique new products.

Five-year-old Kevin liked to play catch, a lot. Two of his older brothers had the patience to endlessly toss the ball back and forth ? and back and forth to little Kevin. By the time he was in Little League, his throwing skills already far-exceeded those of his teammates. He was always first team, all-district in junior and senior high. His abilities shined, but coaches, while well-meaning, didn?t really know what advice to give Kevin in order to advance his baseball career beyond high school. It was a small 4A high school that didn?t normally attract the attention of college recruiters and pro scouts. In his senior year he hit .998, committed one error and had a 3.0 grade point average. He was an exceptional player, and he knew it, but he didn?t have the guidance and exposure needed to go beyond high school baseball. Kevin said he is a prime example of the type of athlete Sportsrecruitingscouts.com can help. Kevin graduated from high school in 1985. While he still loved baseball, he enrolled at Prairie View University, a small Texas college, and set his dreams aside for a year. In the summer of 1986 Kevin played in a summer league and caught the attention of a high-school baseball coach who had taken South Grand Prairie High School to the state championships. Recognizing great talent, he advised Kevin to enroll at Navarro Junior College (a school closely watched by the major league scouts) and go out for the team as a walk-on. Kevin followed this counsel and, while maintaining a 3.0 average, went all out in his attempt to secure recognition for his talents on the field. Whenever the coach called special meetings for the scholarship players, Kevin showed up, too ? always sitting in the front row. Kevin?s confidence in himself and the athletic talents he demonstrated on the field resulted in an athletic scholarship for the 1987 spring term. Out on the field, he was finally in position to show off his talents and catch the attention of pro scouts ? and they noticed! That spring, he was drafted in the 6th round by the Texas Rangers and started off in their instructional league. In 1987-88 he made team captain over many who went on to gain fame out on the field, including ?Pudge? Rogriguez, Sammy Sosa, Juan Gonzales, Billy Hasselman & Darren Oliver. Following a year on the A Team, playing out of Gaston, NC, and a short stint in Double-A and Triple-A, he reached his dream ? playing in the Major Leagues. This dream was short-lived. After one season playing outfielder for the Texas Rangers, disaster struck and he underwent shoulder surgery. This kept him off the field for a season, and in 1993 he was traded to the Chicago White Soxs and played in the minor leagues. A second shoulder surgery brought a halt to his baseball career. It was time to move on. Kevin?s first baseball card touted him as the ?hardest worker in the Ranger organization.? The work ethic that drove him to succeed in baseball now provided the stimulus for him to succeed off the field. Kevin now works as a credit analyst for Silverleaf Resorts.
