PA Junior Grange Camp kicked off at Camp Sylvan Hills, Centre County, on Sunday June 28, 2009.
On Tuesday afternoon, the campers were bussed to Penn State where they took a tour of the State College Spikes' Medlar Field ballpark. The Spikes are a Single A farm club of the Pittsburgh Pirates. They were led by Junior Grange Director Karen Mohn and her staff and they were met at the park by State Grange Master/President Betsy Huber and Public Relations Director Carl Meiss.
After the tour, campers hiked to Berkey Creamery on the campus of Penn State University where they were treated to ice cream cones.
They then hiked back to Medlar Field and cheered on the State College Spikes who lost to the Mahoning Valley Scrappers 4 to 6. Junior Princess Ashley Mohn and Prince Bobby Wike had the honor of throwing out the first pitch and each received an autographed baseball afterwards.
