GLL has again been awarded the opportunity to handle parking for the Annual Gettysburg National Base Ball Festival! The festival brings together a 24+ vintage base ball league line up from all over the country for the weekend long tournament right here in Gettysburg.
Vintage Base Ball is a passion for these players who travel to different states to play America's pastime as it was played in the 1800's... down to the replica uniforms, equipment and rules. (That's right... no gloves!) For a lot more on this fantastic, local festival, visit their website: gettysburgbaseballfestival.com
This 10th Annual event will happen on July 16-17, 2022 at the historic Schroeder Farm,965 Pumping Station Road, Gettysburg, PA 17325. 2023 Dates TBD
