We are finnally breaking out the new park on Sunday July 2nd vs Litchfield. Tim Laudner from the Twins will be there to sign autographs starting at 12:30.

We are franticly working our butts off this week to have everything ready to role and are making good progress. Anyone from the Lakewood, Victory, Central Valley, or any other league who doesn't have a game is encouraged to come out and see the place, drink some beer and of course watch what should be a great game that pits the two teams that came out of the west last year.

hope to see a lot of you there!!! #noedit

I have been working on the house right across the street from the field and can say that the field looks awesome. On Wednesday when the beer trucks were coming in, I turned to my boss and said we should go over there and see if we can be the first sell at the field

A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest animal. And when hunted it is the slowest and weakest that is killed first. This is good for the herd because the general speed of the herd keeps getting stronger. In the same way the human brain only operates as fast as the slowest cell. Alcohol kills brain cells but kills the weak ones first. That is why you feel smarter after a few beers.

For all who made it thanks a lot. It was a smashing success. estimated 450 people came through the gate. I believe that might be a record for a lakewood league game. We probably won't draw like that again but we hope to keep the numbers in the 100+ range per home game. The support from the community this weekend and ever since the project was started was really something that I will remember forever. game got a little out of hand late but Litch was short a few key players.
