Saturday Morning’s 6am sunrise over field 7! ☀️⚾️
Being picked to host part of the Tennessee Dizzy Dean Allstar season is an honor we don’t take for granted. As a park, Black and Gold is the largest event we host all year and the only way we can make big improvements to our park that our players so desperately deserve . The way we see it, families spend so much time at the ballpark, sometimes more than they do at home, so we want to make it feel as much like home as possible and we’re grateful for every opportunity we get to pour into this facility and these kids!
This Allstar season has shown HYAA how our area parks can band together and truly work as one big family and that’s something that no amount of money can buy. That takes park leaders that truly love the sport, the kids and the communities they serve . We are thankful to be a part of such an awesome network of area parks willing to go above and beyond for these kids - and honored to help when we’re called on.
As we come to a close of games being hosted at our park tomorrow we just wanted to thank everyone that’s visited Hixson over the last two weeks . The smiles from parents, the laughter from children and the sound of bats hitting the ball kept all of our volunteers going even when most were running on 2 hours of sleep. As we continue our Allstar season please spread the kindness you showed us within the other parks and remember none of these park representatives are paid for their time . A smile and reminder that they’re doing a good job goes a long way ❤️⚾️ see some of y’all tomorrow!
