Join us at the New Market Area Library on Saturday, October 26 at 3:00 pm as we recall a simpler time of sandlot baseball and big league dreams. In 1950’s Stanley VA, a group of country boys played sandlot ball and kept meticulous records of batting averages and scores. In 2016, these players (now grown) were invited to submit their records into the Hall of Fame Archives in Cooperstown NY. Recently featured in a PBS documentary, men from the original teams will share their stories of growing up in rural Virginia and playing baseball. Please join us for this free program!

The New Market Area Library (which is two blocks east of Congress Street at 160 East Lee Street) will participate in the Town of New Market's Trick or Treat on Congress Street on Thursday, October 31 from 5 to 7 pm at the library.
