It's official. Iron Peeps take first! The winner of the Peeps Spring Bonnet contest held by the Morning Call is seven-year-old Ian Royer. With his sister Grace, he put together a baseball-themed "bonnet" that shows a baseball diamond with peeps at bat, peeps on the bases, peeps in the outfield, and peeps in the stands, all of it anchored to an old baseball cap. The name of the home team: Iron Peeps, a nod to the "just-born" Triple-A IronPigs. The perky yellow marshmallow peeps, of course, are made by Just Born, the Bethlehem-based candy company. All in all, a clever combination of spring, local ball club, and local product. Way to go, kids!
