Attention!!! ⚾🥎

Today is a special day for HBSC and our community as we play our first games on our brand new softball field! The outfield may not be as green as we hoped just yet, but it is safe, ready, and our girls finally get to take the field they deserve.

Even better, both our baseball and softball teams will be playing in the new location today, creating an incredible atmosphere for our kids, families, and community.

Games start at 4:30 PM, so come out and support our kids! Bring your lawn chairs, grab a spot, and enjoy a great evening of baseball and softball.

And come hungry — the concession stand will have burgers and hot dogs ready to go.

We couldn’t have made this phenomenal new facility happen without the support of our amazing community. We hope to see you there!

🥎 Hiawatha Baseball & Softball Club took a leap to make sure our girls could play on the brand new turf softball field this spring—and thanks to this incredible community, we got it done by April.

🏁 Now we are in the final stretch to finish paying for this amazing project. HBSC is a 501(c)(3), so all donations are tax deductible.

💙 We have several ways to give:

🙏 If you are able, please consider making a donation. Just as importantly, please share this post. The more people we reach, the better chance we have of finding the individuals or businesses who can help us bring this project across the finish line.

⚾️ This field was built by our community, for our community. Thank you for all you have already done.
