As spring turns to summer, as nice, comfortable days turn to hot and unbearably humid days, there are some people in New Hope who try and beat the heat by taking part in the New Hope Fitness Softball League. That sure is some way to beat the heat.

Each week, softball teams gather at the New Hope-Solebury High School fields to engage in fun, but competitive action. However, what was unexpected when teams first began recruiting for players was how ridiculously hot the summer would be; over 20 days of 90-plus degree heat as of July 15.

Teams come from all over the area to play. Some of the softball squadrons include Havana Restaurant, Triumph Brewery, Chico’s Bail Bonds (of whom New Hope Mayor Larry Keller plays for), and Roger Green and Associates.
