Before the Washington Nationals/Los Angeles Dodgers game on September 22, 2009, Returned Peace Corps Volunteers and agency staff participated in a Parade of Nations that featured flags from current Peace Corps-served countries around the world. At the beginning of the game, Peace Corps Chief of Staff Stacy Rhodes represented the Agency on the dugout and commenced the game with the traditional call of Play Ball! The annual event at Nationals Park in Washington, DC celebrates the contributions of Peace Corps around the world and marks the anniversary of Congress approval of the legislation that formally authorized Peace Corps in 1961.
