Parade

We’re kicking off the season with an exciting new tradition! All baseball and softball players, coaches, and families are invited to join us for the First Annual Finksburg Baseball & Softball Parade.

All baseball and softball players and coaches are welcome! Players should wear their team uniforms, and coaches are encouraged to wear Finksburg Baseball gear.

This parade is a celebration of our amazing community, bringing together players, coaches, and families as we march toward an incredible season. We hope this will become a long-standing tradition for years to come!

Staging Information: Please walk your athlete to the south exit of the W&W parking lot and have them with their coach/team/age group.


Canned Food Drive

As we celebrate opening day at Roaring Run, we will also be collecting canned foods and other non-perishables to feed those in our community in need. Some of the most sought after items include:

  • Peanut butter
  • Jelly
  • Cereal
  • Canned soup
  • Canned pasta
  • Canned chili
  • Canned or bagged beans (red and black)
  • Pancake mix
  • Pancake syrup

Donation bins will be set up outside of the concession stand. We can also accept cash donations through the website. Please use this link (you'll be asked to select a participant, it doesn't matter who you select).

Used Equipment Drive

We will also be collecting gently used baseball equipment at the clubhouse. If you have equipment sitting around your home, consider donating it and we will spread the love of baseball! Bins will be located outside the clubhouse for any donations.
