Community Engagement

For many years, the Wareham Gatemen Organization has made it a priority to be active in the community and support various community organizations and projects. While most support is done anonymously, the Gatemen do promote some of our activities:

GATEMEN READING PROGRAM

We have two confirmed dates in 2026 and are working to lock in more at different libraries. Each program runs about 45 minutes in length. The library has the books for the players to read. After reading there is Q&A for the kids to ask the players questions, and then the players also ask the kids some questions.

  • Mattapoisett Free Public Library - Tuesday, June 23 at 10:30am
  • Marion Elizabeth Tabor Libra - Monday, July 20 at 10:30am
  • Rochester - date TBD

PARTNERSHIP WITH THE WAREHAM PUBLIC LIBRARIES

For many years, the Gatemen have been going to the libraries and helping the staff with general maintenance, grounds keeping, shelving books and (if possible) technological tasks.

Damien's Food Pantry Collection Site

The Gatemen ask fans to donate non-perishable food items to Damien's Food Pantry in our donation bin in the labeled drop box near our concession stand in left field.
