Clifton Forge Little League currently has a volunteer 10-member Concession Stand/Fund Raiser Committee which oversees the purchase of uniforms and equipment, as well as field upkeep and other expenses. All workers and Board Members are unpaid, as are players except what they may purchase at concession stands run by parents for the Little League. Presently Little League youth are involved in baseball and softball with practices held each Saturday to prepare for games. During football season, concession stands are run and staffed by the Department of Parks and Recreation.
