If you like baseball, softball or both than this is where you want to be this year in 2017 and that is my hometown Williamsport, Pennsylvania where the Little League World Series began. The little league world series has so much history that they built a hands on museum right on the same property of where they play ball. This museum gives you the option to learn facts and the abilities to do what a player does when out in the field. Yes! the World Series is big, the people and the ball players come from all over the world to participate in a once a year event here in South Williamsport that was and is designed for players aged 10-16 years old.
See, I can talk forever on the world series that I attended many years growing up or just Williamsport alone because I was born and raised here. Plus, I go home yearly for my family and friends but, I will say this will be the best vacation ever because there is so much to learn and do here in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. So, feel free to ask me anything and I promise to answer you back quickly on what I know and/or learned. Below is the 2017 event dates
