On Father’s Day, all kids are invited to play catch on the field with their Dads before the game between the San Rafael Pacifics Baseball Club and the Martinez Clippers.

What do you want to be when you grow up? It’s the classic question every child gets as they are growing older. When I Grow Up Day lets children explore different jobs and get their little minds thinking big. Professionals from all over the community are coming to Pretend City to share their jobs with all our little friends! Maybe it’s a firefighter, maybe it’s a doctor, maybe it’s a mommy! With this imaginative day, children get to explore the world without leaving Pretend City and get their creative minds dreaming big.
