Pulaski River Turtles bring Appy League summer ball to Calfee Park
Summer nights in Pulaski run through Calfee Park, where the River Turtles fly the flag in the Appalachian League, a collegiate wood-bat summer circuit for rising college players [1][2]. Based in Pulaski, Virginia, the club gives local fans a steady slate of home dates at one of the region’s most charming parks [1][2].The River Turtles brand arrived with the league’s 2021 reorganization, marking Pulaski’s shift from the old MiLB-affiliated setup to a college-development summer format [1]. Home games remain at Calfee Park, keeping the soundtrack of wooden bats alive in town as a new class of college talent cycles in each season [1][2].The mission is simple: develop college-aged players and showcase them in a fan-friendly environment, with Pulaski providing the stage and Calfee Park the backdrop [1][2].
