Since the inaugural season in 2002, the SteepleCats organization has become a source of pride in northern Berkshire County through their success on the field, ability to provide quality and affordable family entertainment, and contribution off the field in our community through interactions with our youth at schools and camps.  The SteepleCats distribute annually over 3,500 tickets to our youth, counsel hundreds of campers at the local YMCA, make appearances at every elementary school in northern Berkshire County, including Stamford, VT.

When members of our community think of the summer, the SteepleCats is an immediate response.  As a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, the SteepleCats are only able to exist and function through the generous support it receives from community businesses, philanthropy, and the generous time from our volunteers and host families.  To keep what is a wonderful asset in our community, we encourage you to consider supporting the SteepleCats organization through one of the many sponsorship programs available.  We thank you for your belief and consideration of your support.
