We're celebrating all things baseball - and what's more synonymous with baseball than Cracker Jack?? (Well, maybe hot dogs...but Cracker Jack may edge them out!) The song, "Take me out to the ballgame" was written in 1908. The reference to Cracker Jack ("buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack") didnβt come through any deal with the snack company, but forever linked the popcorn snack to the game of baseball. #NSC #AdultDayCare #comejointhefun #homeawayfromhome #adultdayservices #seniordayservices #senioractivities
