The Hall of Fame Museum opened on May 24, 1997 and is dedicated to the history, preservation and recognition of amateur, semi-pro and professional baseball as it was played in years past on the Del-Mar-Va peninsula.
Exhibits range from hundreds of photographs, uniforms, bats, balls, gloves, letters, programs, tickets, trophies, and other baseball memorabilia. Special displays make your visit more memorable.
Also featured in the museum area is the Jimmie Foxx Home Run Club. This provides you with the opportunity to honor a special person or to remember a loved one. For $100.00, a bronze engraved plaque will be placed forever on this wall "in honor of" or "in memory of" that special person.
