Parking is free. Spectators should enter to the left of the turf baseball diamond, then proceed to the merch tent (located next to HQ) to either purchase tickets or check-in to receive a wristband.
There is no spectator seating at the field so we recommend spectators bring their own chairs and blankets. Dogs are not permitted on the turf.
