CAIRO — The Jackie Robinson Boys and Girls Club took part in a fun day of activities when they were hosted by the Atlanta Braves on April 19, culminating in the club watching the Braves defeat the Texas Rangers, 8-3 in front of a sold-out crowd.
The JRBGC was escorted to Truist Park by a charter van, before club members entered through the Battery and were given a private, exclusive tour of Truist Park with access to Hope and Will’s Sandlot, along with the field.
Club members got to stand on the field with Braves players during the national anthem, before providing JRBGC Director Stephen Francis with the ultimate surprise.
