Try as we do to get every veteran to a baseball game, some are unable to make the trip. In 2019 we decided to bring the joy of a game to them. We initiated a “Spring into baseball season” party, which was a huge success. COVID had an untold impact on the one term care community, and the VA Facilities were hit hard. We had to cancel the parties in both 2021 and 2022, but we resumed this year, and it was once again an afternoon of great joy. More than 200 in attendance: residents, guests, volunteers and a special guest Alex Fernandez, one of baseball’s great pitchers.
