Step Back in Time: Attend a Vintage Base Ball Game
Looking for something you've never experienced before? Consider attending a vintage base ball game in the Catskill Mountains! This historic pastime pays tribute to the 1800s, with teams competing under the original base ball rules of the era. In many cases, players even take the field without mitts and wear classic period uniforms.

The games are lively and playfully competitive, making them a great place to spend your afternoon and step back into a simpler time. Across the Catskills, you'll find several teams, including the Kingston Guards, the Saugerties Vintage Base Ball Club, the Mountain Athletic Club, the Bovina Dairymen, and the Polecats Vintage Base Ball Club.
Bring your friends, a blanket, and some snacks, and settle in for an afternoon of old-school fun.
