About Challenger Miracle Field

Imagine a place where we focus on what makes us alike, not what makes us different. A place where joy and laughter fill the air; where kids and adults play together; where everyone belongs. That place is Challenger Miracle Field of Greater Rochester.

What started as a simple idea – giving kids and adults with disabilities the opportunity to play America’s favorite pastime together – has grown into a dream. A dream of building a field and play space like no other in our community.

“We are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike”
