It serves more than 7,500 children annually and is supported by the track club, private donations and partnerships with the Atlanta Braves Foundation, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta, Chick-fil-A and more.
The season ends May 14 in Piedmont Park, with the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Georgia Peachtree Junior, which requires a separate registration and fee.
