The Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation will host its third annual Arizona edition of Baseball Fantasy Camp for Kids in Surprise, Arizona on Friday, March 16.
Sponsored by Baseball Fantasy Camp for Kids, the camp is designed to give youngsters with physical challenges the opportunity to feel like professional baseball players for a day by participating in a one-day clinic hosted by their Major League heroes.
Joining the Rangers for the event will be 60 youngsters from the city of Surprise's Bambino Buddy Ball program. Participants will each be instructed by Rangers minor league coaches and staff. Texas Rangers players Joey Gallo, Drew Robinson and Ryan Rua are also expected to appear at the event. And each child will receive an authentic, customized Rangers jersey to commemorate the day.
Baseball Fantasy Camp for Kids will be held at DreamCatcher Park, located at 14534 West Tierra Buena Lane, Surprise, 85374. Activities run from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
The Rangers have hosted similar fantasy camps in partnership with Miracle League DFW in Arlington, and most recently Miracle League of Southlake, for the past seven years.
