Texarkana is expecting a crowd between 2,500 and 4,000 people in the area from now until Sunday, July 20. Last night, an opening ceremony was held at the Four States Fairgrounds to welcome the teams, families, and fans with an opening speech from Texarkana, Arkansas, Mayor Allen Brown. A first pitch and a huge fireworks show topped off the evening festivities.

"This is a huge opportunity for the Texarkana Community, businesses, restaurants, and the hotel industry to help provide these athletes and their families with an unforgettable experience, said Brown."
