Let’s Play, Toledo!
Let’s Play is a youth sports initiative of the Toledo Mud Hens and Walleye that aims to introduce kids in our communities to baseball and hockey, share the fun of healthy play, and foster a lifelong appreciation for the sport. Through the help of our corporate and community partners, we offer a variety of programs in and outside our walls that teach kids the fundamentals of baseball and hockey and encourage them to continue playing at home.
