Description | In 1867 the first ball club in Winslow township, The Boomerangs, was organized in Reynoldsville. The members were mostly young-men out of the army. They had games in Punxsutawney, Luthersburg, Brookville and other neighboring towns. At home the club played on a diamond situated between Main and Grant Streets and near what is now the site of the Baptist church between Fifth and Sixth Streets. Immense crowds for those days, witnessed them play. |
