This small park owned by the city of St. Peter's has three base/softball fields, a picnic pavilion,…read moreswings (no full playground), and restrooms. The narrow entrance broadens to a wide flat, grassy area with all the park's amenities in the rear. That flatness collects water after rain or thawing snow, making a muddy, wet park. Ball fields can also have standing water after a rain. On snow days a small hill offers sledding fun.

A football/softball diamond and a football field supply team sport needs. Two playgrounds with rubber ground covers provide fun for young and older children. Exercise/fitness stations surround the playgrounds. The pool has a single diving board and multiple slides. A kiddie pool is separate. Nonresidents pay slightly more than Wentzville residents but pricing is inexpensive. The gym and fitness center has workout machines, treadmills and other exercise equipment. Classes and programs are available at separate cost with discounts to residents. Rental info about the banquet facility can be found on the parks website.

I tried to come up with a catchy title for this one, but with the comedy of errors, the only thing…read moreI could come up with was... "Hoots on first? I don't know... Third Base!'" I'll.be honest, I hate most major league ballparks. There just so "stuffy and expensive". And I grew up an Astros fan, so being a Cards fan wasn't' "in the cards", so I need a local non-Cardinals associated team.. and to be honest before the Hoots came around, I was a huge River City Rascals fan (before they moved out). So why not try the "new" team? I can spare a 'tenner', right? So let's start with the comedy of errors. Gates opened at 5:30 (not the game start). If a schedule says x o'clock that's the first pitch guys, not gates opening! Current cost: $10 So I buy a ticket an hour before the gates open and have to wait. Good news is, met a crew from the Veterans hospital and they were absolutely hilarious crew to hang with (before and during) the game. Chuck and crew, I hope we get to do that again! Okay, back to the comedy of errors... so I get my ticket out for the gate. And it won't scan!!! All of the sudden we realize the clerk gave me a ticket for next week's game. Really guys? It's that easy to print the wrong game? (-1 star) Thankfully one of the girls recognized me and got me a new Valid ticket quickly. (+.5 star) So now it's time to go look around, and I'll be honest other than a couple of signs, NOTHING really appears to have gotten an update since I was last here (Even a wastecan still had the Rascals logo!). I think even the Perch seems unchanged and just still feels "old", but as I'm soloing I don't need to spend the $$$ to reserve the area, so I'm not 100% sure here. So off to the gift shop. Something that always disappointed me previously, and I'm sorry to say the product selection hasn't improved much. Mostly kids t-shirts (understandable) and hats, but no jerseys for adult sizes beyond a few XL. But I will say they did have a nice variety of Hoots bobbleheads in various outfits. So there's something to work around! But they need to showcase the goods and not just leave them near a back(front?) window. Along with the limited selection of goods, it was DARK, lighten up the room guys.. make it inviting! Late at night it felt like a tomb, more so than gift shop! (-1 full star) But now its food and drink time. It's not busy, so only three eateries are open.. It's baseball, so a brat is mandatory.. only guess what! The least busiest food stand didn't have yet delivered from the main line... Yep, the comedy of errors continue. Well I promise the server I'll be back and she promises to have some. When I realize the foodshops all stocked differently! But this is a little comedy of errors, as I can go with something different, just to order at one find stand... Updated cost: $22 (12 for 1 brat/beer. OUCH a bit!) Uniformity guys or specialize!! (PS: Even the "mystery beer" food cart wasn't running and honestly, it was a "prize" I think should be going for every home game. Great gimmick idea but inactive?) (-.5 stars) The food cart restocks and all is well until they realize they don't have my adult beverage of choice.. the other ones do, but I really can pick 'em huh? (-.5) (So better not ask me for my fanduel bets.. unless you're going opposite and voila. Winner!) Entertainment: So the basic entertaining is for the kids. Rightfully so, but they do have something for the adults! But bring a pen. as you will see. After home half of the inning, they do baseball bingo where every player is assigned 8 bingo letter/# combos, based on the result of their AB (Single, pop fly, walk, etc) and their position. You get 5 cards, and any 5 #'s in a row on any card gives you a prize. That's great til you realize you got nothing to mark your #'s with, and it may take two innings for enough # and with 5 cards, hope you got a good memory! Great idea.. but a big board of numbers might be nice for those of us who need to be reminded to check our tickets, much less track bingo #'s. (No penalty - just consider it). Which takes me to the staff, very friendly, w/both adults and kids, so huge thumbs up for all the smiles, even on an overcast day. (PS: Cotton-eyed joe is a CIRCLE dance :P ) (+1) Which finally brings me to the seating, and while it appears that absolutely nothing has changed in that part of the stadium either, this is a case of you don't fix what isn't broken. I selected 3 different locations to watch from the infield, (general admission is a great thing) and not a bad view of the field from anywhere. (Although I should have done one from the wall, just to heckle the outfielders instead of the ump). And one more adult beverage for another 7. So $29 bucks in all, not a bad 4 hours out at the park. Not MLB prices, but not total budget friendly anymore. But the real q is why haven't you used my "Hoots on first" slogan yet? (Feel free to use, but I want slgoan credit!!)

The playground was undergoing renovation in November 2021. It's fenced, a major safety benefit, and right next to the pavilion and restrooms. Behind the playground a small woody area has a nature trail. Or, several nature trails. With dead leaves covering it, overgrowth obscuring part of it, and no signage it was difficult to tell at times if I actually was in the trail or carving my own. I did sometimes come to dead ends and had to retrace my steps. I found a couple of benches along the path(s). The trail is hilly and uneven. Obstacles such as downed trees lie across it. However, with houses around the three sides that aren't parkland it's easy to navigate your way back to the parking lot if you end up lost.

The main feature is the three decent sized baseball/softball fields that are in reasonably good condition. I imagine they get quite a workout during the warmer weather! There are bleachers at the ball field though there is minimal shade. The park also has a few picnic shelters, a permanent structure with restrooms and a really nice looking playground with shade and several different climbing/sliding features. Parking is behind and to the side of the largest of the baseball diamond. I would imagine that you still need to be aware of the foul ball going back into the parking area.
