For the second year, the Crown Point Athletics Division is celebrating the return of baseball and softball season with the Ball Diamond Sports Festival.
The Ball Diamond Sports Festival will be held in conjunction with this year’s opening ceremonies and parade for the City of Crown Point Girls Softball league and Cal Ripken Baseball.
The opening parade will begin at 9 a.m. Saturday, May 6, in front of the Commonwealth Engineers, 19 N. Court St. The parade will end at Bulldog Park, 183 S. West St.
Players and their families are invited to Bulldog Park for remarks from Mayor Pete Land and fun at the Ball Diamond Sports Festival. The festival will feature vendors and food trucks. The festival will be from 9:30 a.m. to noon.
“We’re excited to celebrate the opening of both youth softball and baseball in Crown Point,” Crown Point Mayor Pete Land said. “Last year’s event brought hundreds of players and their families to Bulldog Park. We’re looking forward to kicking off the 2023 season.”
