The Kiwanis Club of Buffalo is a proud sponsor of the Hertel-North Park Youth Baseball League. The league was founded in 1954 by a group of volunteers and it has continually offered children the opportunity to play ball at Shoshone Park on Hertel Avenue near Main Street since its inaugural season in 1957.
The league operates youth baseball and softball leagues for boys 4-15 and for girls 3-16-years-old. At last count, there were nearly 900 boys and girls playing on 62 teams in six different age-based divisions.
