Picnic Dinner & An Evening of Old-Fashioned Baseball at Pittsfield's Historic Wahconah Park

Enjoy a family friendly night out with OLLI and friends. Your ticket includes reserved seats behind home plate and an al fresco picnic dinner. Great views of every pitch! Bring your camera and binoculars.

What's on the menu? Grilled hamburgers, hot dogs, and chicken, pasta salad, watermelon, brownies, iced tea, and lemonade. (Beer is available for purchase.)

Wahconah Park is one of the last remaining ballparks in the United States with a wooden grandstand and is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. It was constructed in 1919 and seats 4,500. An article about historic Wahconah Park in Sports Illustrated was entitled "Just a Little Bit of Heaven." You can find it here.

Game night is Friday, June 1, 2018 to see the Pittsfield Suns play the Bristol Blues. Picnic dinner is served at 6 PM, and the game kicks off at 7 PM.
