☀️ Scout Night at the Diamond
Scouts, we might be off base but we think you’re going to have a ball at Scout Night at the Diamond on July 29th at 6:30 PM. You don’t want to miss the opportunity to enjoy a post-game movie and pitch a tent on the outfield for a major league camping experience. Can’t stay the night? No harm, no foul. Scouts are invited to swing by for the game! Don't forget to bring a non-Scouting buddy or two!

A second Scout Night is scheduled for July 9th! Don't forget to bring a non-Scouting buddy or two!
