Burk’s Falls Officially Unveils Upgraded Baseball Diamond

A ceremonial first pitch officially kicked off the action at the newly upgraded baseball diamond in Knights Brothers Park. The Burk’s Fall Boltz and kids from across the community can play ball thanks to the Field Of Dreams program – the charitable arm of the Toronto Blue Jays.

In 2024, Burk’s Falls received a $50,000 grant from the Jays Care Foundation that was used to repair the infield and outfield, and to purchase new bleachers, benches, fencing, bases, and a new scoreboard.
