Baseball Season is Almost Here!
We’ve once again been invited to perform a pre-game demonstration at an Elmira Pioneers baseball game! Keep an eye out for a poll on the office door with tentative dates for the event. We’ll choose the date with the most votes. If multiple dates receive strong support, we’ll do our best to book as many as we can.
TTKD students will get free entry to the game, and additional family members can join for just $6 per person. Reach out to Master Tom if you have any questions.
