The Crabs invite fans to attend the festivities celebrating their 70th consecutive season of baseball in Humboldt County, get a free program, buy 2014 Crabs gear, hear the Crab Grass Band, bid on auction items and meet the 2014 team.

Proceeds from the opening dinner, co-sponsored by the Crabs and the City of Arcata, will fund improvements at the Arcata Ball Park such as new bleachers, foul poles and new nets. The Humboldt Crabs rent the ballpark from the City of Arcata. In addition, legion baseball, little league, high school teams and other sumer baseball teams also rent the ballpark — so your generosity goes a long way to help improve the city-run ballpark.

During the evening, the Crabs will sponsor a silent auction. Crabs sponsors and local businesses generously donate gift baskets, gift certificates and other donated items to help keep Crabs baseball going in Humboldt County. We thank all our sponsors to have supported Humboldt County baseball since 1945. Click to see a full list of our 2013 sponsors here.

First pitch of the 2014 season will come the following day after the dinner on Saturday, May 31, 2014 when the Crabs take the field against the Fairfield Indians. For a 2014 schedule, click here.
