We had an out-of-the-park experience last week! ⚾✨

Jacob’s Chance had the incredible opportunity to attend a game during opening week at the brand new CarMax Park to cheer on Richmond’s favorite team, Richmond Flying Squirrels, and it did not disappoint! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the beauty of the stadium and the thoughtful design throughout.

What meant the most to our community was the intentional focus on accessibility. The new features truly create a welcoming, inclusive environment where individuals of all abilities can fully enjoy the game day experience. That kind of impact goes far beyond baseball.

We are so grateful for the continued support and partnership of the Flying Squirrels, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit to the ballpark! 💙

April is a time to celebrate differences, uplift voices, and champion inclusion. 💙 For World Autism Awareness Day and Autism Acceptance Month, we recognize and honor the unique strengths, perspectives, and talents of individuals on the autism spectrum.

Let’s move beyond awareness and into acceptance—creating spaces where everyone feels valued, supported, and empowered to be their authentic selves. Together, we can build a more inclusive community where differences are not just accepted, but celebrated.
