🌟 Autism Night at Fergie Jenkins Field – Tuesday, July 22 🌟

Join us for a heartwarming and inclusive evening as the Chatham-Kent Barnstormers take on the London Majors at 7:35 PM, in celebration of Autism Night, proudly presented by CK Tourism.

⚾️ To create a more welcoming atmosphere for individuals on the autism spectrum, the Barnstormers will be observing "quiet innings" while the visiting team bats—offering a more relaxed sensory experience with reduced noise and stimulation.

🪑 Fans will also appreciate the new bleachers along first base, which provide a calmer, more comfortable vantage point for those seeking a quieter space to enjoy the game.

This special night isn't just about baseball—it’s about community, understanding, and celebrating neurodiversity in a setting filled with care, fun, and hometown spirit. We encourage families, friends, and supporters to come out, cheer on the Barnstormers, and help make Autism Night a lasting tradition.

Let’s play ball—with heart. 💙
