For the first time since 1989 the Little League International Congress will be held in Williamsport, PA June 10-13, 2022.
What is the Little League International Congress? Held every 4 years, the Little League International Congress brings together volunteer District Administrators (along with many other Little League officials) in an effort to help improve the Little League program. Various rule and regulation changes are voted on among other items of business.
Pins and Little League go together like peanut butter and jelly. Most of the individuals who attend the Little League International Congress are pin collectors. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if lots of people bring their own pins along to do some trading.
The Little League Store in Williamsport has a few new pins made for the 2022 Congress.
During the late 1800's Williamsport was known for being the "Lumber Capital of the World". At one point in time Williamsport had more millionaires per-capita than anywhere in the world. This is why Little League's mascot Dugout is seen dressed as a lumberjack. Nothing is more frightening than a chipmunk/beaver hybrid swinging a baseball bat with an axe head mounted on the end.
