On Saturday May 24th from 10:00 till dark at the softball fields in Stepanjsko naselje, the U.S. Embassy softball team and seven other regional teams participated in the American Memorial Day Softball Tournament.  Hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, sodas and beer was available for purchase near the softball fields.

All proceeds goes to the Slovenian Softball Association to help with the field maintenance.  This is our way of saying thanks to our fellow Slovenian Softball colleagues!
