Introducing the Pit Spitters Community Foundation!<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n

The Pit Spitters Community Foundation is the nonprofit extension of the Traverse City Pit Spitters, operating under the umbrella of our parent company the West Michigan Whitecaps and their Community Foundation<\/span><\/a>. The foundation is dedicated to enriching the lives of youth and their families by providing them with access to fun, baseball, team-dynamics, leadership, education, and recreational opportunities.
