Unfortunately, my regular schedule has taken me away from this project for a while, and while I can not add any pictures at this time, I can give you this information, and it is fine without pictures.
Eagle River not only offers little league baseball and softball for the youth of Eagle River/Chugiak, but it also offers baseball fans a great evening of entertainment. In 2006, Knik Little League hosted many of the District One playoff games for all levels of Little League. Currently, Dimond West out of Anchorage is getting ready to face off against Juneau in the State Juniors tournament. The winner of these next games will head down to the lower 48 for the Regional Tournament and a chance to go to Michigan for the Junior Baseball World Series. The group of kids playing for Dimond West are looking at their 4th visit to regionals and when they were in the Majors level of play, they were the first team from Alaska to make it to within one game of heading to the Little League World Series. Many of these kids are former Alaska Quakes, a travel baseball club that has many Knik Little League members as well as players from Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valley and offer the kids more baseball in the short Alaskan Summer. So whether there are Eagle River kids playing, or teams from Kodiak, Juneau, Wasilla, or even from out of state playing up at Lyons Park in Eagle River, you will be guarenteed a good time at the ball park if you are a baseball fan.
Knik is always looking for people to help out. Umpires are one area the league is always looking for help, so if you can donate some time, this would be a greatly needed, and worthwhile place to do it.
