Well with ball season coming to an end so are your chances at enjoying the best hot dogs around.

​

😊The tiki hut will be open this week Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Hot dogs will be the only food item however. We will still have cold drinks etc. We will sell hot dogs until they are gone so I suggest to come early if you have your heart set on “one more” before you head home. 

 

Please keep in mind that our hope is to sell everything before we close up shop so we may not have everything you are hoping for.
 
Hope to see you there and thanks for all your support this season.

​

There are no sunscreens along ​the ​1st base​ side of softball field 2 and we will not be putting them up for 1 pitch ​softball games ​t​his week.

​

If you are playing or watching softball games on field 2 this week (3/23 - 3/25), use your golf cart or bring a pop-up tent.

​

Players for both sides will be given priority and share sunscreens along third base line Mon-Tues-Wed.

 

This Friday, March 27 at 9:00 a.m. we will be removing the "lip" between the grass outfield and the clay infield on diamond 1.  We would appreciate as much help with this as possible.  Please bring rakes and shovels.

​

This is the only thing that will be done this Friday.  It is NOT part of our annual shut down; that will occur in the near future.
 

Yearbook distribution starts Monday, March 23.  Click here for details.​

Congratulations to Quality Cabinets, the 2026 men's softball league play off champions and to the gray team, the women's end-of-season play off champions.

​​​​​​​​

A reminder about vehicles (particularly golf carts) on the softball outfields...

​

The ONLY vehicles allowed on the softball fields are maintenance vehicles like lawnmowers, infields groomers, etc.  PLEASE DO NOT USE CARTS TO PICK UP SOFTBALLS AFTER BATTING PRACTICE.  Pick them up on foot.  The extra wear & tear of vehicles on the outfields has a significant, negative impact on the grass.  The grass is already stressed because of continual use and lack of rain.

​

If you don't want to/can't pick up batting practice softballs on foot, then kindly use field 3 for practice.

​

Thanks!
 

Congratulations to the Dynamos, winner of the women's league regular season championship game!
