2011 Season

Hi Everyone,
We are a bit late getting this site updated for this season, but will hopefully get on track this week. Our season will begin this Saturday (weather permitting) at 10 am at the Sherrill Rominger field. Please have your children there by 9:45 am to line up for the opening ceremony. Each child will be announced and will take the field with their teammates. Our National Colors will be presented by the 24th Judicial District Honor Guard, and the National Anthem performed by Tipton Braswell. Following the ceremony, we will have Major League games on both the baseball and softball fields with the teams playing a pre-season 3 inning game. The schedule should be released by Thursday evening. On the T-ball field, we will have inflateable rides available for all children ages 12 and under, unlimited slide bracelets will be available for $5.00. On the Machine Pitch field, the Parks and Rec. Dept. will conduct their annual Pitch, Hit, and Run competition. The children will have the chance to move on to regional competition in all 3 divisions of this event. There is no cost to participate in this. There is scheduled to be in attendance, members of the Hickory Crawdads staff, members of Appalachian State's baseball team, and the Avery High Baseball team. If the weather co-operates, we will have a great day getting our season started. Come out and join us and support the kids.
