There are two LL's in the Durham area that I am aware of South and North Durham LL. What exactly is a challenger league?
The Challenger division of Little League is a special division for special kids.....thanks Coach....we will contact them directly.....
LadyNMom - JohnLex7 works with a special olympic baseball team here. He might be a resource for you or be able to lead you in the right direction. 
LadyNmom, Not sure exactly what you are looking for, but check out the Miracle League of the Triangle. Cary is about 20 miles from Durham. There are Preseason Games being played this coming Saturday (August 19) and the Fall Season begins September 16 with dedication of the new field (with a rubberized surface to accommodate wheelchairs). Be sure to read the history. If you'd like a direct contact person, PM me and I'll put you in touch with someone at the MLT. Here's the link to the Miracle League: Miracle League of the Triangle
Thank you all for the info....Baseball Buzz....the Miracle League is exactly what we were looking for......we will contact them.....
Don't forget Special Olympics as well. It is competitive softball played at a number of different levels, your state Special Olympics office can tell you if there are teams in your area.
Thank you John....we have thought of Special Olympics too.....certainly another worthy venue for volunteering.....but think we are going to sign up with the Miracle League of the Triangle.......I'm hoping for snack bar duty...after 12 years behind the grill....I can't let go of the spatula.....
