This Saturday, April 13th, is a great day for the Dunbar community, as we get together at Memorial Field to open the baseball season with so much opportunity in front of us for fun, growth and sport. I have included some key points and times below to keep in mind to make this an enjoyable and safe experience.

A recent article in The Vancouver Courier on Connor Noble highlights his path to pitching for the Canadian National Junior team. The team is currently in spring training in Orlando Florida. It is inspiring that the article mentions his start at Dunbar Little League. He is a wonderful model and something to work hard toward.
