Old Time Baseball League Fundraiser for the Tablet Day Centenary

Enjoy a fundraising Old Time Baseball Game played by the Essex Baseball Organization using original 19^th century rules to support the Tablet Day Centenary Civil War Monument Rededication in Atkinson Common.  On Sunday June 2^nd, watch the Clamdiggers vs. Live Oaks at the Spencer Peirce Little Farm.  The Ipswich Ale truck and food vendors will be on site during the game. This fundraiser recognizes the role that the Civil War played in promoting the sport of baseball from a North East regional sport to a national past time, as POW Union soldiers taught their southern captors the rules of the game while detained at several  Garrisons.  Please come enjoy a day at the farm to help support our Tablet Day Centenary event.
