The Mount Olive Little League held their opening day parade on April 14, 2012. Players marched past a fire engine as the parade began towards the baseball field. Upon arrival, the rescue vehicle staged overlooking the field as the kids lined up. Dignitaries including the mayor welcomed the players and honored an assistant fire chief who had passed, with his son throwing the ceremonial first pitch.
