We are having a ball this summer…1860’s style! The National Park Service at Fort Vancouver National Historic Site will present Vintage Base Ball – a baseball game played by the rules of the 1860s – on Saturday, July 23, 2016, at 6 pm.
You will think you have stepped back in time as the National Park Service at Fort Vancouver National Historic Site will once again host its popular evening of 1860s vintage base ball at 6:00 pm on Saturday, July 25, 2015, on the national park’s historic Parade Ground. This event is a fun, free, and fantastic opportunity to experience “base ball” (then two words) at its infancy, with costumed players and supporters, a brass band concert, and a mountain howitzer firing to start the game.
