Host Families
BECOME A HOST FAMILY TODAY!
​
Imagine you’re watching a major league baseball game and you recognize the pitcher as the young player who spent a summer in your house years ago. This could be you.
Help our Braves players as they fulfill their dreams of playing baseball and enjoy a summer you and your family will never forget.
We are always looking for generous families and individuals to open their homes to our players during the summer.
​
Numerous families and individuals have warmly offered their homes and provided welcoming food and lodging for student-athletes traveling from far and wide. This has created an immediate “booster club” and a dedicated fan base within the Staunton community.
​
The host family program is a vital part of the Braves organization. Each summer the Staunton Braves players live with a host family within the community. The host family program in Staunton was started back in the 1970s and is still thriving today as a model program that many other teams in the Valley Baseball League have adopted over the years.
​
If you are interested in being a host family and have questions about how the program works, please call Lance Mauck, Steve Cox or Debbie Irwin.
WE NEED YOU!
