It’s the Dirigo vs. Mudville! Come to Parsons Field in Kennebunk on July 1st to watch authentic 1860s base ball played with its original rules (No gloves! The ball can bounce!) and all the players are in historic wool uniforms. It’s not a day out at the 19th century ball park without food, fun, sweets and activities to enjoy with the whole family!
Game kicks off at noon.
The Museum’s Dessert Bazaar will offer sweet treats from the community, while also providing classic baseball food like hot dogs, popcorn, and more.
Activities for the whole family (aside from the base ball game!) include kite-flying, craft-making, and more.
Plan your game day:
* BRING lawn chairs and blankets to sit and enjoy! (Umbrellas are helpful against sun and rain!)
* This event is RAIN OR SHINE unless the teams call for a postponement. Please plan accordingly.
* PARKING: free parking is available on Park Street (please be aware that foul balls sometimes fly!); Main Street; in the Town Municipal lot next to the Museum, and in the Parsons Field lot near the playground (accessible via Park Street).
Tickets:
Pre-Purchase: $8 per person/$4 for Members (free under 12)
Game Day: $10 per person/$5 for Members (free under 12)
