HAGERSTOWN, Ind. (WISH) — Now that the Hagerstown Little League team has returned home after its World Series run, the city is planning to honor them this weekend.

The team competed representing Great Lakes Regional which consists of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan and Kentucky, and they’re ranked top 12 out of 7,400 teams worldwide.

This has been quite an accomplishment for a small town of less than 1,800. 

Hagerstown Town Manager Chris LaMar spoke Friday on “Life.Style.Live!” to share how people can celebrate the team this weekend.

At 2 p.m. Saturday, a parade for the team will begin at Hagerstown Elementary School, travel west down Main Street through downtown, and conclude at Hagerstown Park on the west side of town with a meet-and-greet/autograph session with the players.
