On Saturday, April 28th, Marion Recreation held its Girls Softball Opening Day at Washburn Park in Marion. There were 130 Softball players from Marion, Mattapoisett and Rochester. A Marion Fire Engine led the girls and their coaches in parade. All of the teams were introduced, including the Kindergarten to Second Grade T-ball players. The Old Rochester Booster Club concession stand was on hand for the day. Each player was given a complementary lunch from the Friends of Marion Recreation. A Home Run Derby was held, and all the teams played games throughout the afternoon. Everyone had a fantastic time. It was a great way to kick off the Softball season!
