Description	"Organized ball clubs first appeared in Vevay in 1868 with two clubs, the Socials and the Independents. County clubs that later followed were the McCreary Ridge Bean Hullers and the Mount Sterling Calico Caps in 1882 and the Bennington Club in 1888. The turn of the century brought the Moorefield Club and Smith Ridge Club in 1900. Then a plethora of clubs organized in 1907: the Vevayites, the Crescents (Vevay) and the Vevay Patriots (Junior Team), Sugar Branch Club, Tapps Ridge Club, Patriot Posey Club and the Drakes Ridge Club. Clubs forming later included the Vevay Carnations (Junior Team) and the Vevay Colored Club in 1908, the Plum Creek Carnations and the Lyrics (in Vevay) in c. 1910, and the Fairview Club and the Orioles (Vevay) in 1920."
