Relationship with Howard County

HCYP is not funded or managed by Howard County and is a completely independent, nonprofit, youth sports organization. HCYP’s Kiwanis-Wallas Park is owned by Howard County and has been leased to HCYP for youth development activities. The Howard County Department of Recreation & Parks oversees HCYP’s management of Kiwanis-Wallas Park. HCYP manages, maintains, and improves Kiwanis-Wallas Park entirely from its operating budget. Capital improvement funding has been provided by both Howard County and HCYP, but the fields are solely maintained by HCYP.

Baseball: The Early History of HCYP

What is now known as Howard County Youth Program took form via discussion at the Ellicott City Times newspaper on Main Street in Ellicott City, Maryland. Charles Gerwig, the Editor of the Ellicott City Times, two Ellicott City Times’ employees, Keith Fisher and Harry Walker, and Earl Maisel initially talked about a youth baseball league in 1950. The discussion motivated the men to travel to Williamsport, Pennsylvania to meet with the founder of Little League Baseball, Carl Stotz, on a Saturday morning in February 1952.

Upon their return, the initial group of founders decided to form their own league and called it Howard County Little League. The first season had 60 boys registered between the ages of 8 and 12. Tryouts were held on a Saturday morning in March 1952, at the Ellicott City Junior High School (now known as Ellicott Mills Middle School) baseball field. For the initial season, four teams were formed: the Phillies, Yankess, Dodgers, and Red Sox. The games were played on a baseball field located at the intersection of St. John’s Lane and Route 40 (current the site of St. John’s Plaza) in Ellicott City.

Carl and Charlotte Hardman Myers owned the initial site. The couple ran a motel called Hardman’s Motel. For a number of years, the opening day ritual included a parade down Main Street in Ellicott City, complete with all the players, school bands, fire trucks, and a military band from Fort G. Meade.

Anton Wallas owned acres of land on Maryland Route 144. Wallas wanted to donate approximately 11 acres to Howard County for the development of a park. Wallas’ condition for this donation were that his numerous cats would be taken care of. Howard County would not accept the condition, but the Kiwanis Club of Ellicott City did. Wallas wound up donating the property to the Kiwanis Club for the “use of the children of Howard County.

One day during 1953, a tractor-trailer ran off Route 40 and directly across the St. John’s Lane ball field. Fortunately the field was not being used that day, but for safety reasons, it was decided to move the Howard County Little League to Wallas Park. The Howard County Little League officially moved to Wallas Park during the 1954 season. Wallas Park initially had two ball fields: one small field where the outfield section of Field No. 6 currently resides and another smaller field at the present site of Field No. 5. The 1954 season brought an increase to the total number of teams to 8. Wallas and his wife lived the remainder of their years at 10455 Fredrick Road, the current site of Kolache Kreations, where they ran a Sunoco Gas Station and sold beer, soda, hot dogs, sandwiches, and candy. For a brief time, this site served as the HCYP concession stand.

During the early 1990’s, the Kiwanis Club determined that owning Wallas Park was no longer in their financial best interest. After several Executive Board meetings between HCYP and the Howard County government, it was determined that Wallas Park would be purchased by Howard County and leased back to HCYP.

HCYP’s Baseball Complex and Headquarters: Kiwanis-Wallas Park

HCYP is fortunate to have exclusive use of the exceptional baseball and softball facilities at Kiwanis-Wallas Park (KWP) in Ellicott City, Maryland.

KWP has 9 baseball fields of varying diamond size, including five lighted fields. KWP’s baseball fields all have grass infields and raised dirt mounds providing a high quality game experience for our baseball players. KWP has 3 softball diamonds, of which two are lighted. 

KWP’s fields are maintained at a high level and are the best conditioned fields in Howard County. Fences surround almost all fields and covered dugouts are part of each field offering. KWP also has three batting cages for the use of all HCYP programs. KWP also offers clean restrooms and a grill and snack bar that is open during most games. The covered pavilion next to the snack bar provides a shady place to enjoy a meal, have a team meeting or party, or just relax.

Coming to KWP is a great experience not only for the players but for all family members.

The Story of Norbert O’Donnell

Norbert O’Donnell began raking and chalking fields and cutting grass at the 17-acre Kiwanis-Wallas Park in 1978 and made it his personal mission so kids would have a great place to play. At times, he spent 50+ hours a week there, in addition to holding down a full-time job. He cut the fields late at night by the headlights of his tractor, filled potholes, laid sod, spread fertilizer, put up nets, mended fences and carefully prepared the baseball mounds. Sadly, in 1996, Norbert suddenly passed away. In his honor, the roadway that goes through the Park is known as Norbert’s Way.

Kettle Moraine, South Milwaukee migrate south for early baseball games

As a blustery wintery mix continues to threaten playing fields across the Milwaukee area over the latter part of March and early April, some baseball programs are migrating south for more hospitable playing conditions.

Kettle Moraine and South Milwaukee found their way to Tennessee for games last week, starting their seasons with trips that fostered team bonds on and off the field.

It was the second trip for Kettle Moraine and head coach James Wolbert, who came across Riverdale High School in Murfreesboro prior to arranging the trip to compete in last season's Spring Classic. The tournament, hosted by Riverdale for 31 years, features programs from numerous states competing in three games each throughout a week-long tournament at the end of March.

The Lasers went 2-1 with a 14-0 win over Deerfield (Illinois), a 10-5 win over Beech (Tennessee) and a 5-2 loss to Riverdale. Beyond the games however, the trip was highlighted by activities such as hikes, swimming, pickleball, basketball and building campfires near the rental house where they stayed at. Phones are collected by the coaching staff while at the house, as players are encouraged to enjoy their present company.

"I do this not to punish them, but to spend quality time together," Wolbert said. "They spend enough time looking at those devices. It's nice to see them just be kids and enjoy the time together."

South Milwaukee coach Ben Parlier said his team's trip to Powell, just northwest of Knoxville, came about through an idea the coach had for a multifaceted journey for his program.

Class of 2022 graduate Nate Snead is a sophomore standout on the pitching staff of the Tennessee Volunteers, and their home schedule happened to line up with South Milwaukee's spring break. Parlier reached out to a few Knoxville area coaches to arrange exhibition games, creating a memorable week of watching, practicing and playing baseball outside for the first time this spring.

"It's clear the baseball fraternity is alive and well, as I had not known any of the coaches prior to this trip," Parlier said. "The coaches trusted that we would respect their facilities and offered to open them up whenever necessary. The coaches all went out of their way to ensure that we had every opportunity possible to make the trip a success."

Visits with Snead also left an impression on current student athletes for the Rockets. The sophomore is the ERA leader on a staff that leads the No. 4 ranked program in the nation as of the start of April.

"Nate went out of his way to spend time with our team, attended our games on Thursday and made sure we could get down to the field and take some pictures with him," Parlier said. "Our team was able to see that anyone, from anywhere, can accomplish their dreams through dedication, hard work and the help of others."

For both coaches, simply getting some warmer weather to practice in while fostering deeper bonds among teammates was well worth the challenges of arranging the trip.

"The biggest thing is creating a family atmosphere within the team," Wolbert said. "Baseball is a crazy game. In my experience, the most successful teams are not the most talented ones, they are the ones that are the closest and have the tightest bonds. Willing to sacrifice their own successes for the team's."

Russian cities battle heating outages as temps drop below freezing

Tens of thousands of people in Russia are affected by a lack of heating, water or electricity, according to Russian media reports, after frost and outdated pipes are causing outages in many cities amidst below freezing temperatures.

A main district heating pipe in the Siberian city of Novosibirsk busted on Thursday, the local media outlet Siberian Express reported.

Hot water and heating failed in more than 100 homes and 12 other buildings, while the hot water from the district heating pipe poured down a main road at minus 15 degrees Celsius.

A survey by the rosteplo.ru website showed that 3,000 people in the harbour city of Vladivostok on the Pacific were without heating on Wednesday.

In the nearby city of Nakhodka, 6,000 people were without heating, while disruptions in the cities of Yekaterinburg, Volgograd, Saratov and Penza in recent days were also reported.

In St Petersburg, the rupture in a district heating pipe should be repaired by Thursday morning, according to the authorities.

In Podolsk, a city near Moscow, the heating plant of an ammunitions factory, which also supplies over 170 high-rise buildings, broke down on January 4. The town's deputy head of administration, Roman Ryazantsev, was taken into custody on Wednesday, according to the court there. About 20,000 people were affected.

This time Russian President Vladimir Putin intervened and ordered a rapid restoration of the heating supply and nationalized the ammunitions factory. Other cities in the Moscow region are also facing heating problems.

Politically, the heating supply failures are a set back for Putin, who is seeking re-election for a fifth term in March.

Affected citizens protested in some cities. In the town of Elektrostal near Moscow, some houses had allegedly not been heated since mid-December, while people are keeping warm by open fires on the street.

In its war of against Ukraine, Russia is attempting to damage the neighbouring country's energy supply by firing missiles at it, while last winter this resulted in electricity, heating, gas and water often failing in Kiev and other cities.

This winter, fewer outages are being reported in Ukraine despite the attacks.
