The last Barnstormers game I attended of the season, it started to rain, but it wasn’t like a full rain almost like a mist. And I thought wow know what would be cool, taking a quick video little did I know I’d catch a grand slam on that quick video.

𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐀𝐭𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝: Named in honour of Barnstormers Team Ambassador, former Montreal Expos pitcher, lifelong Chatham resident and longtime minor baseball coach Bill Atkinson, this new annual award recognizes Barnstormers who go above and beyond to make a difference in our community.

And our inaugural recipients certainly went above and beyond. From supporting local charities and community events to dressing up as hot dogs at a BBQ and even letting snakes crawl all over them at the animal shelter, they were always willing to show up, pitch in and put a few smiles on faces along the way!

🏆 The first-ever recipients of the Bill Atkinson Community Involvement Award are... JULIEN MONKS & ROBERT MACKIE!

Congratulations, Julien and Robert, and thank you for representing the Barnstormers so well beyond the ballpark.

One last bubble tea for the road! 🧋⚾️

The guys from the Barnstormers stopped by for one last visit before heading home for the season. It was a real pleasure getting to know them and watching them play this year. I’m very grateful Forever Steeped got to be a small part of their time here in Chatham.

Wishing Haru, Ryoya, Yuri, Yushin, and Mizuki safe travels and all the very best wherever baseball takes you next! Thanks for the memories, guys. You’ll always be welcome back for a bubble tea or matcha!🧋⚾️
