More Than a Facility: The Dugout’s Community Mission
Step inside The Dugout and straight into the heart of Nova Scotia’s ball community. In this episode, Chris Burns — General Manager and baseball lifer — shares how a simple desire to give young players a proper place to train grew into Bedford’s newest indoor baseball and softball hub.
From childhood memories on dusty fields to coaching philosophies shaped by mentors, Chris opens up about the moments that built his passion for the game. You’ll hear how The Dugout blends pro‑level tools like HitTrax and raised mounds with a welcoming, all‑ages atmosphere where U9 rookies, senior fastpitch players, and weekend warriors all share the same turf.
It’s a story about community, leadership, and creating a space where anyone — whether you’re chasing Nationals or just chasing nostalgia — can pick up a bat, take a few hacks, and leave smiling. A must‑listen for anyone who’s ever loved the feel of a ball in their glove.
