We’ll kick off the season with a parade of our players—from tee ball to seniors—a short ceremony where all players will recite the Little League pledge, and the first pitch of our 2025 season! Players should wear their uniform jersey and hat. (Don’t have one yet? No worries! We’ll hand out uniforms to younger players before the parade.)

We’ll also have a gear exchange—bring any gently used gear, clothing, or equipment to donate. (Any remaining items will be donated to Goodwill or used by our league.)

After the parade, kids can enjoy field games like baseball/softball tic-tac-toe, kickball, and a Wiffle ball home run derby. We encourage you to bring your own picnic lunch, or grab a bite from one of the three food trucks on site—Nacho Rio Mexican, Theo’s Gyros, and Sugar + Spoon desserts.

So round up your crew and head to Loyal Heights Playfield on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
