Combine baseball, Miracle Field, and first responders, and whaddya get? An incredibly fun and inspirational day for the whole family.

It’s the fourth annual Heroes Helping Heroes Day at Challenger Miracle Field. This coming Saturday July 20, local first responders will spend the day at Miracle Field, playing with and against some of our amazing Challenger athletes. In addition to the entertaining baseball games, and the chance to meet some local first responders and get a close-up look at some of their equipment, there’ll be food, carnival games, a dunk tank, obstacle course and lots more.

The event is scheduled from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the field, 1000 Ridge Rd., Webster.

The day will start with a tribute to local heroes followed by baseball games. The Seneca Park ZooMobile will be onsite with animals and families can enjoy a dunk tank, inflatable games, and food throughout the event. A variety of special needs agencies and providers will also be there. 

This is a great morning of safe family fun. There’s no charge, and there’s plenty of parking. To find out more, visit www.rochestermiraclefield.org.
