Memories
Photographs and stories from Schneider Park, going back to the beginning.
We learn teamwork and build bonds that last a lifetime.
Dozens of people sent photographs and stories from every era: first gloves, TOT ball tears, tournament trophies, teams whose players now have children of their own out there.
Thank you. This park never kept a record of itself, and without the people who played here there would be nothing to put on this page.

In their own words
Not up yet. The written memories are still being collected, and nobody is quoted here until they have been asked.
Dozens were left on our Facebook post, and they are worth reading in full. See the whole thread →
Add yours
This page is nowhere near finished, and it never will be. Memories are still being made here. If you have a photograph from any year (a team picture, an opening day, a concession-stand crew, a trophy on a tailgate), we would love to have it.
Tell us the year if you remember it, and who is in the picture if you know. Half of what makes an old ball photograph worth anything is somebody being able to say who that is.
If we got something wrong, or if you would rather we took it down
We are working from memory and from what people told us, so some of these years and names will be wrong. Tell us and we will fix it.
And if a photograph of your family is on this page and you would rather it were not, that is entirely your call and you do not owe us a reason. Message us and it comes down.
