Marion Recreation kicked off the girls softball spring season with Opening Day at Washburn Park on Saturday, April 28.

There were 130 Softball players from Marion, Mattapoisett and Rochester. Leading the girls and their coaches in a parade was a Marion Fire engine. 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.
