Yard Goats to hold Annual FanFest Event tomorrow at Dunkin’ Park
Free event includes behind the scenes tours, face painting, batting cages, mascots & more
The Hartford Yard Goats Baseball Club, the Double-A Eastern League affiliate of the Colorado Rockies, announced it will host its annual FanFest tomorrow (Saturday, March 15th) from 1:00-3:00 PM at Dunkin’ Park in Hartford. This free event is open to the public and will include behind-the-scenes tours of Dunkin’ Park, face painting, arts and crafts, Yard Goats mascots Chompers and Chew Chew, and Fancy Pants the goat from Circle K Farm of East Hampton. Fans will also have the opportunity to test out the indoor professional batting cages that the Yard Goats use. No ticket is necessary for this free event.
Fans can plan for a day in Hartford as the Greater Hartford St. Patrick’s Day Parade will take place earlier in the city, stepping off from the Capitol building at 11AM. Most of the Yard Goats FanFest festivities will be held outside on the main concourse level of Dunkin’ Park. Fans may enter FanFest through the main gates on the corner of Main and Trumbull Streets. The Yard Goats Retro Brand Team Store will be open for those who want to purchase the newest Yard Goats gear. The Click It or Ticket Box Office will also be open for fans that want to purchase tickets to the Yard Goats and college games this season.
