The Chicago Salmon will travel to Doctors Park just north of Milwaukee at 1870 E Fox Lane, Fox Point, WI. See the attached map.
- Once you get in the parking lot it should be pretty easy to find- they're in field area 3 on the map.
- If you have some time before or after the game, the park is right on the bluffs of Lake Michigan, with hiking trails that go down to the beach. Just north of us is also the Schlitz Audobon Center, which has some great hiking/walking trails and also beach access along the lake.
