No baseball experience? No problem. This 3rd Grade Boys Social is all about running, jumping, laughing, and burning off approximately 47% of their annual energy reserves.

Hosted at a local baseball facility, the boys will rotate through a mix of turf games, sports challenges, and high-energy activities. Want to take a few swings in the batting cage? Go for it. Prefer to skip the hitting and dominate the relay races instead? Totally fine. Participation is flexible - fun is mandatory.

This night is built for every kind of kid: the future MVP, the casual competitor, and the "I'm just here for the snacks" guy.

Athletic clothes required. Trash talk discouraged. Good times guaranteed.

Date: September 13, 2026

Location: TBD

Hosted by: Jennifer Caras, Maggie Dundon, Eva Martinez, Brittany Ross, and Stephanie Shaefer
