The Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation – established by Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr. in honor of his late father, a longtime MLB player and coach – recently visited Buffalo to lead a baseball fundamentals clinic for coaches and players in the Boys & Girls Clubs of Buffalo youth league. The initiative, part of Delaware North’s continued support of the organization, was led by Katie Gorman, director of corporate social responsibility and strategic initiatives, and builds on the company’s role in helping launch the league in 2024. Pictured above is Scott Swinson, senior director of development for the foundation, observing as a young player fields a ground ball.
In 2024, Delaware North helped transform an overgrown field into a baseball diamond and revived a long-dormant youth league in an underserved Buffalo neighborhood – bringing the game back to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Buffalo
