BYOB - Bring Your Own Beverages
The park district does not allow alcohol in the park, so please don't let it be seen and don't leave any such trash behind.
Can't play?
That's OK, we don't care. We're not that good anyway.
We'll even attempt to teach you although we're not qualified.
We do try for three hits, but it doesn't always happen.
We're really there to have fun, get a little exercise and meet new people.
We usually get anywhere between 15 to 30 people, and when enough people arrive, we set up a second net on the grass so everyone can play.
And afterwards, we often head to a nearby bar & restaurant for food and drinks.
