In the vibrant state of Virginia, where the Appalachian mountains kiss the sky and where the Chesapeake Bay plays tag with the Atlantic Ocean, a lively and animated crowd of kids swarm the green fields every day. These aren't ordinary kids though, oh no! They are the extraordinary Baseball Beavers of VA, miniature gladiators armed with baseball bats instead of swords, and baseball gloves instead of shields. The leader of this pack, Benny the Baseball Beaver, is an icon among his peers. With his oversized baseball cap perennially on backwards, freckles dotting his button-like nose, and a lopsided grin always plastered on his face, Benny is as much a part of Virginia's landscape as its breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains! Benny and his Beavers are not just kids with bats and balls, they are wizards who turn the baseball diamond into a magical playground. With each swing of their bat, they send balls soaring into the sky, higher than the hawks, drawing gasps from the onlookers. When they run, their tiny feet are just a blur, zipping across the field faster than Virginia's infamous groundhogs. The camaraderie among these kids is something to behold. They celebrate every home run with a victory dance that is as funny as a corn-dancing chicken. And even when they miss, their laughter echoes around the field louder than the call of Virginia's cardinal, the state bird. This is Virginia’s very own Benny the Baseball Beaver’s troop. They are a funny, brave, and tenacious bunch. They may be small in size, but they are mighty in spirit. They are the Baseball Beavers of VA, the great state’s pride and joy!
