Summer Camps 2023

The President's Summer Message

As we prepare our summer camp schedule it bring back to my mind the simple joy of waking up on a summer morning, watching "Leave it to Beaver" and then heading out on my bike to play neighborhood pickup baseball for the balance of the day. This feeling of the sheer enjoyment of the game is what we would like to pass on to the players that attend our summer camps. We work with them to improve their various skills, play pickup games but it is the love of the game that we would like them to leave with the most.

Baseball is one of the greatest lifetime companions anyone could ask for. The season itself plays out like a long running serial or soap opera whether it is the team you're playing on or the major league team you are following. You can collect cards, read box scores or take in games at various ballparks stretched across North America. Numerous fine authors write book one the intersection of baseball and history. But most of all, baseball helps form connections between people of different generation, continents as well as the kids down the street. for all these good things to happen we have to remember "It has to be fun!" I hope to see you all this summer because it is going to be fun.

Sincerely, Chris Corkum
