I highly recommend purchasing parking ahead of time and having a plan before arriving. We ended up paying around $30 at a nearby lot, which was convenient and honestly about what we expected for game day parking. Compared to Wrigley, the concourses at Rate Field felt wider and much less crowded, which made moving around the stadium easier. They also had veggie dogs and veggie burgers available, which was another huge plus for vegan and vegetarian fans. The crowd was great, the atmosphere was fun, and there truly didn't seem to be a bad seat in the house.

I was there for today's 10:35 am game with the New York Boulders, they play night games and day games, and sometimes 10:35 am on a weekday morning, they only have won more weekday 10:35 first pitch for this season and that is tomorrow morning with the same team, and they have games in August at home.

Wrigley Field is absolutely packed with history and energy. The entire area surrounding the stadium…read morewas alive with fans, restaurants, and excitement, making it such a fun game day experience. Be prepared to arrive early, though, as the lines can get long and navigating the concourses may take a little extra time with the crowds. One thing I really appreciated was that they offered vegan hot dogs and veggie burgers, making it easy for vegetarians and vegans to still enjoy classic ballpark food. Overall, Wrigley delivers an iconic Chicago baseball experience that every sports fan should experience at least once.

Good park located in Bridgeport. It has lots of athletic facilities and fields. McGuane Park is…read moreknown for the many youth leagues. Also it's okay just to walk around or hang. This is located next to Palmisano Park, so you get a twofer. A lot inside this kind of small park that makes it feel bigger. It's got a fieldhouse with an assembly hall, two gymnasiums, and a pool. The athletic fields include baseball diamonds, football and soccer fields, and tennis courts among other things. Lots for kids to do here. There's also a playground and interactive water feature good in summers. For sure it's a good place for an athletic child. It's known for its many youth leagues and programs. This gives them something to do in the summer or whenever.

A fantastic park is on the far South Side with some cool scenery including a beach. Calumet Park is…read moreone of my lesser appreciated favorites. It just about is as close as you can get to Indiana. Beach of course is the best part about here. The rest of the park has some gardens and hiking trails. Either in summer or winter it's a beautiful place for hanging. It has a few big parking lots. There's plentiful parking meaning it's usually easy to find somewhere. Beach is the most notable feature. This goes along a few miles. Certainly it isn't always pretty around here. There's some ugly old factories, including those across the lake in Gary, but besides that it's beautiful mostly. Be warned about the nuisances here, which include birds and bugs. It's especially bad in the summer. This park is most happening then and has features such as athletic facilities and other fun things.

A mom-of-two's (a toddler and preschooler) straight-forward review -…read more Pros: 1) The playground is vast with various activities that applies to younger and older children - climbing ropes, bridge, rock climbing wall, various slides, zip line, monkey bars, etc. My younger daughter is 2.5 years old and love walking across the bridge. There are ropes to hold to but the little daredevil in her would just run across so it is important to be watchful of the child and be sure they won't trip and fall through the ropes. 2) The whole playground has a rubbery ground so it is very comfortable and safe. 3) There is a splash pad in between the toddler and older children sections. I am uncertain when it actually turns on. We have been twice, once at 9 AM and a second time at 3:30 PM. It was on in the afternoon and several kids were running in and out of the splash pad. It's a great option to have when it's hot and sunny out. 4) There are six tennis courts nearby and this works out perfectly for our preschooler to squeeze in a tennis session with her daddy before or after the playgrounds. Cons: 1) Not a con at all - But the playground is so vast that I can barely capture the whole frame in one picture!

While Centennial has more sports to offer (outdoor swimming pool, 8 soccer fields, 9 baseball/softball fields, bike trails, etc.), JHC really specializes in baseball/softball. JHC has 5 regulation fields for baseball and softball (with a clubhouse centering 4 of them), and they also use 5 additional fields from the school district right next door ... so in total, JHC can use 10 fields of play, and all are professionally maintained with the fields dragged every day. If I remember correctly the infields are clay and the pitching mound are a flat circle (so its really set up for softball). The fields are generally used for 16 and Under games. There are often tournaments during the summer, but when the fields are empty anyone can get on and hit the ball around ... no appointment needed, just go and play. There really aren't concessions here, so you pretty much have to bring your own. Bathrooms are in the center clubhouse. Parking is on both sides of the complex so there are scores of spaces. They do have a walking trail or two through the complex if you aren't there for the ball games. The whole complex is part of the Orland Park Village Hall buildings. Give this place a try.
