Description:

The little league baseball field at Celoron Park in southwestern New York, sits hard by the Chadakoin River that drains Chautauqua Lake on its southern end. Hit a baseball far enough into right field there and it could theoretically spit out in the Pacific Ocean; Chadakoin to Cassadaga Creek, to Conewango Creek, to the Allegheny, the Ohio, the mighty Mississippi, through New Orleans emptying into the Gulf of Mexico, some 1,100 miles downstream. The field is built for little league players, shortened base paths and pitcher’s mound. It’s also, as legend has it, where Babe Ruth once stood and hit a baseball into right field, into the Chadakoin River, some 500 feet from home plate. The Village of Celoron is rich in history that dates back to 1749 exploration voyage. Celoron is the childhood home of Lucille Ball, "The First Lady of Comedy" and the long-time home of "Historic Celoron Park", called the Coney Island of Lake Chautauqua.
