Ok! Blue Jays! Lets!... Play!...Ball!



Kevin Bennet, "star" of the Kentville Rec Report heard on the Early Show Wednesday mornings, enjoying his "man-sized" single-single.


Kelly Gruber workin' the bases...


Duane Ward working with future pitchers...

Lloyd Moseby teaching the fielders...


Magic 94.9's Jerry Neville having his picture taken with Duane Ward...at least a reasonably-drawn facimile of Duane Ward...


I used to love singing that song during that 7th inning stretch of the Toronto Blue Jays games at Exhibition Stadium and the SkyDome a.k.a. Rogers Centre, when I was a kid growing up in Toronto. The Jays were always heros to little kids in the city, so as a big kid now, it was still a thrill to see some former Blue Jays All-Stars in town for Duane Ward's Canadian Baseball Camp!
They had a blast here in the Valley, and are now moving on to Yarmouth. It was great just to catch a glimpse of the guys, I can only imagine how much fun the kids in the camp had...what an opportunity. They'd be too young to remember Kelly Gruber, LLoyd Moseby and Duane Ward from their playing days, but I'm sure they did a lot of "Googling" when they got home to see how great these guys were.
