The Baseball Field at Columbus Park, The Burg



The Baseball Field at Columbus Park, The Burg.
Chestnut Avenue. Chambersburg Little League was a
part of many Burg folks lives back in the day.
This picture was taken on a warm spring day:)

UPDATE: Ralph Lucarella adds:

I want to mention that my dear friend Tony Frascella was not
only the president of the Chambersburg Little League but the
chief caretaker and hot dog vender for many years. He devoted
most of his life to helping the kids and also find the time to
manage the State Highway team in the Trenton Industrial League.
He passed away recently along with his wife Kate.
May God Bless Them.
