Normally, when teddy bears (or any inanimate objects) are thrown on a baseball field, it is because the home team is getting demolished at the plate. But on Saturday, May 25th, the inaugural Teddy Bear Toss at Virginia Credit Union Stadium will be a fun, wholesome event that will give back to the community.
Purchase either a George or Mary Washington teddy bear on the Fredericksburg Team Store website, using the promo code TEDDYBEARTOSS24 to waive the shipping fee. Pick up your teddy bear at the Stadium Store on the 25th, and, after the Fredericksburg Nationals clobber the Lynchburg Hillcats, throw said teddy on the field!
All of these bears and stuffed animals will support the Jared Box Project, as well as underprivileged and hospitalized children in the region. The Teddy Bear Toss is a wonderful opportunity to support the children of Fredericksburg, and a great way to practice your pitch; aim for the pitcher’s mound!
