Our Volunteers manufacture beeping baseball equipment. We provide beep balls, bases, and other equipment for teams of blind beep ball players to participate in a unique and exhilarating sport. Teams from across America compete in local, regional, and national contests culminating in the World Series. But, we have to keep them supplied with specially modified beeping softballs and bases. We need your help!

The Denver Beep ball Group is open to anyone who enjoys doing basic assembly as part of a cooperative team or is interested in learning how to do the simple electronic assembly in a safe and fun atmosphere. No experience is necessary! The program aims to assemble beep balls while enjoying camaraderie. Come and check us out!
