Programs and Events
April 12, 2025 - Girls at Bat
Join us Saturday, April 12, 2025, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (Registration beings 8:10 a.m.) at the Clairmont Community School Gymnasium
Girls At Bat is an introductory level baseball/fastball program designed to reduce some of the biggest barriers those identifying as a girl may face when accessing or participating in sport. This program is designed for girls between the ages of 6 and 18 years who are experiencing barriers (as defined by the Jays Care Foundation), and will be offered at no cost to participants. The Clairmont camp will be held indoors to get girls interested in the sport and ready for outdoor play.
The County is working with Grande Prairie Pirates Minor Fastball, and is supported by the Clairmont & District Agricultural Society.
