Adult Softball Game – Saturday, Sept. 7

Calling all Cap City parents and family members who secretly wish they were out there hitting the ball!

We are hosting our 3rd Cap City adult-only softball game. The game will be Saturday, Sept. 7 from 10 to 11:30 am at Chevy Chase Recreation Center. Warm-ups start at 9:30 am.

This is a super casual, fun, slow pitch softball game. Kids are welcome to attend and cheer on their parents. Bring two shirts, a white and a dark colored shirt, and teams will be divided that morning. Any questions, please email events@capcityll.org.

Cap City Gear Exchange

The Cap City gear exchange Google Group is live! We created it to provide a forum for you to buy, sell, or gift baseball or softball gear your player has outgrown. Save money and do a good thing for the planet by buying used instead of new, and give those cleats, gloves, and bats a new lease on life rather than having them take up space in your basement or closets.

To join the group, go to https://groups.google.com/g/cap-city-gear-exchange and click the, “Ask to join group” button. Once you’ve been added, you can email members of the group with what you’re looking for or what you have to sell or gift. You can also view past messages on the group page.

Please join and help us make this a useful resource!
