⚾️🥎 Hello Nyssa Peeps! It’s time for baseball/softball, but things are going to be different. Registration will be completely through Ontario Rec Dept. (on their website or call 541-889-7686 M-F 9am-5pm), teams and schedules will be made through ORD. We are no longer playing as Nyssa OR based teams in PCRD. We will hand out equipment still here. There will be local games as facilities allow. Currently, Nyssa city fields are not playable for games, so as a community, we need to get to work. Our board is planning to attend the City Council meeting on 3/14/23. Our goal is to ask them to work on the Parks. Thanks for your support!
