Take Me Out To The Ball Game

This weekend I took the boys to a Kenosha Kings baseball game with their Cub Scout pack.  It has been years since I went to this ball park but its nice, easy parking and best of all...free! 

The pack arranged our visit with the team ahead time so they allowed the boys to take the field with the team during the National Anthem and be in their huddle.  Then after the first game the players graciously let the boys hound them for autographs even while they attempted to get something to eat before they continued with their double header.  The rest of the scouts left after the first game but the boys were having a good time so we stayed for the second game.   During the second game Timmy hung out in the area outside the first baseline and shagged foul balls.  Here the balls had to be returned but it was still exciting for him.  The other two boys got a little silly about half way through the second game but we made it through and everyone had fun!

The Kings won both games 2-6.

Check out the photos of our fun.

  2. I can't wait until I am able to take my boys to a baseball game. It's one of my summer time things to do and I haven't been able to go in a few years!

    In response to your response to my Are We Over Sensitizing Our Kids" post, I am completely with you when it comes to letting our kids have an imagination. People just seem to forget that with imagination comes scary things and happy things! Thanks for stopping by!
