About Graham Park & Parking:
To those who haven’t ‘yet’ visited Graham Park, it stands as one of the most outstanding sports and activities venues!
o Within Graham Park all vehicles must follow the posted speed limit of 5mph; it's enforced.
o The exclusive field for all ML games (assuming entering the Park from Rochester Rd) is on the right as you drive past the first regulation-size softball field, also on the right.
o The ML has exclusively reserved parking spots – in the lot in front of the field. Signs are posted.
o We will likely have water and/or Gatorade. However, our suggestion is to bring one's own. ONLY water is allowed on the field surface; ie, colored drinks are prohibited on the field.
o There's a "canteen" that’s open a short walk from the field. o There is one all-gender restroom, located at the rear of the brick hut. There are additional restrooms located on the right side of the canteen.
o It is VERY strongly suggested that folks on the field NOT wear flip-flops or sandals. This is a "safety for all" request! Sneakers are the footwear of the MLSWPA!
o Dogs are not allowed anywhere in Graham Park (per Cranberry Township ordinance).
