Join storyteller Lynn Rymarz as she shares the true story of Dottie Kamenshek, who spent ten seasons playing baseball as a Rockford Peach.  Discover her childhood days growing up in Ohio with immigrant parents during the Depression and how she ended up playing with the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League when World War II broke out. Kamenshek and her teammates inspired the movie A League of Their Own.

Reviews

“Lynn truly brought the heart and soul of Dottie Kamenshek alive.  The presentation was engaging, interesting and the ideal tie-in to the baseball season. Patrons complimented the presentation and were motivated to learn more and watch the movie, A League of Their Own. Lynn arrived early and brought relevant props and supporting materials. The event was a home run!”
