Festivities will kick off Saturday, May 6 with a dedication ceremony at the varsity baseball field at 2:45 p.m. The field is being named “Outhouse Field” in honor of Outhouse family members Purdy, Drew and Wayne, who, over several decades, made significant contributions to youth sports in North Salem. The first pitch will take place at 3:00 p.m., as the Tigers take on Rye Neck High School.
