Now that most of the Tea Parties are over...the next ALL AMERICAN event that signals the official arrival of Spring...

LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL OPENING DAY...Saturday, April 18, 2009...

I don't know how it's done in your area, but we make a big deal about it in Amity Township...

All the kids assemble together, including girls softball, and parade down onto the major league field...each player and coach introduced singly...

Capped off by a brief ceremony honoring last year's winners and runners up, then beginning a full slate of games on all fields in multiple locations all day long...!!!

I have two boys in Little League Majors and my daughter plays softball (Just as exciting)...!!!

The weather forecast is incredibly nice...

So here's hoping for a great family day for all...!!!

And just in case they forget...a moment of silence for Phillie's Major League Baseball Hall of Fame broadcaster Harry Kalas who passed away earlier this week...!!!

+++++++++

Harry, we'll miss you now that you're 'Outta here'...With you, every game was a 'Home Run'...!!!

It actually has been a very sad couple weeks for baseball as a whole, but the next generation of big leaguers took the field this week with stars in their eyes and gloves one waiting.

Little league is great in America Fran. Yes the Phillies will definitely miss broadcaster Harry Kalas. Another great one passes from the scene.
