Chicago Salmon News and Updates From Facebook
The Chicago Salmon has a great time playing the vintage game of Base Ball that they love in Menomonie, Wisconsin last weekend. Thanks to the Menomonie Blue Caps for organizing this great event!Threatening storms held off until Sunday, and we enjoyed a beautiful day to play the best game in the land on Saturday morning and afternoon, followed by a great evening together at brewery nønic to recount our feats of the day.
Sunday's weather and field conditions cut the schedule short, and we appreciate everyone's flexibility. All in all we felt this year's edition of the festival was still a success.
The host of the public radio/tv show Wisconsin Life and her able crew were on hand to document (and participate in) the festival and we'll share more on that later when the episode airs.
Thanks again to our amazing volunteers, sponsors and of course, the cranks who cheer us on -- you're the best.
Galleries of Blue Caps matches will follow later this week, once the tintypes are processed.
Enjoy the traveling version of the Chicago Salmon club song presented by Rob Pipes Panknin at the Naper Settlement Sunday.
