This tournament is like “home” for me. It’s family.
We met so many people at the Vermont Summer Classic: it was like a giant hug where everyone said “We understand, we’re with you!”
Twenty years ago Pat O’Connor and a bunch of friends built a quarter-scale replica of the Boston Red Sox’ Fenway Park in his backyard. “Little Fenway” and later “Little Wrigley” and “Little Field of Dreams” would form a gem that has been the site of what many consider the most fun, engaging and sustainable fundraising events created. Since 2001, WIFFLE ball tournaments at Little Fenway have raised millions of dollars along the way for nonprofits in quadriplegia, pediatric cancer and Type 1 diabetes.
The Travis Roy Foundation held its tournament there since 2001. Four years ago it purchased the property from the O’Connors. Sadly, Travis Roy passed away in 2020 and the foundation has decided to wind down, passing the torch of ownership to SLAMT1D, which has held its Vermont Summer Classic at Little Fenway since 2011. We are honored and excited to continue this spirit of kindness, generosity and support for those in need. Please help us fund SLAMT1D’s purchase of Little Fenway.
Your tax-deductible donation will ensure that nonprofits such as SLAMT1D can share the life changing magic of Little Fenway for years to come.
