about us
The food drive will take place on the weekend of September 9-10, 2023 (September 9 at 6:30pm & September 10 at 2pm), at the picturesque Regency Furniture Stadium in Waldorf, Maryland. Fans and attendees are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items, which will be collected at the stadium entrance to support local food pantries.
The End Hunger Grand Slam Food Drive aims to rally the local community, baseball fans, and generous individuals
to come together and make a difference. Everyone who participates by bringing a non-perishable food item to the
event will receive a complimentary ticket to the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs' game, fostering an atmosphere of
joy and solidarity as we work towards a hunger-free community.
The first night of the Food Drive falls on the same evening as the Blue Crab’s First Responders Night as the team
recognizes the hard work and dedication the region’s First Responder have given to Southern Maryland. And that
weekend also concludes the Blue Crabs 2023 home game schedule.
