What an awesome place to check out a baseball game! We have visited this park several times, and it is the perfect size to bring a younger child. We have been coming here since our daughter was just an infant. But when she got a little bit older we felt very comfortable seeing the Chinooks because it is a small enough park that we can keep an eye her, but my husband and I get to enjoy some baseball. They have some really terrific theme nights. The last time we visited we got to meet Milwaukee Brewers legend Rollie Fingers. parking is free, but it is a little bit of a walk to get to the park. Unlike at other places, they supply a convenient golf cart to take you up to the gate if you have a hard time walking a distance. To be honest, we sometimes take the golf cart just because our nine-year-old loves it! There is a nice variety of food available at the park along with bounce houses and some activities for kids. I highly recommend coming to check out a game here. It is affordable for a family and a great time. read more

Lakeshore Chinooks - Getting a hat signed by Rollie Fingers - Amateur Sports Teams Near Me - Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

After winning a game against the 14u chinooks. In the bottom of the 5th inning the game ended in a forfeit. They then got all mad and players trash talked our starting pitcher. The Chinooks called us "dip shits". A parent from the Chinooks tells our boys to "shut the fuck up" and when we retaliate by saying the parents were making themselves look ridiculous, another dad said two wrongs don't make a right and got mad at our parents for being upset about the swearing at children. This team never fails to make a fool out of themselves, and the parents were absolutely unhinged. nobody felt safe leaving, everyone feeling unsafe about the chinooks parents. do better, this is little league baseball. read more

The Chinooks offer exciting Northwoods League baseball at beautiful Kapco Park on the equally beautiful campus of Concordia University on the bluffs of Lake Michigan. The detail and care this team has put into making their games a memorable experience for their fans is evident from their merchandising and concessions to its facilities and daily promotions. In all, if you like baseball and summertime fun, you gotta check out the Chinooks. Batter up! read more

See all

What a great experience! Affordable baseball fun! There's a ton of different entertaining side shows going on before each inning! Check out the fish fry on Fridays! Pretty good stuff! read more

The Lakeshore Chinooks games have quickly become one of our favorite summertime family activities. Located on the Concordia University campus, Kapco park is easy to get in and out of and the parking is free. Kids love how accessible the players are - you're probably going to encounter a few walking in from the parking lot with you! All of the seats are super close and perfect for the smaller members of the family. Larger family members will love the ticket prices starting at just $6! The Chinooks keep things moving between innings with lots of opportunities for audience participation - even for the kids. Different theme nights also add to the fun. Even the food is surprisingly good. Our favorite is definitely the wings with Legend Larry's sauce. Better than our local pub's! If you are looking for a fun outing for the family and don't want to break the bank, be sure to check out the Lakeshore Chinooks. read more

What is not to love about the Chinooks. You pay $10 to get front row seats and get access to the following: Some of the top college baseball players in the nation Awesome, cheap, food selection (pretzels, foot long cod sandwich(!), burgers, dogs, the best condiment bar I have ever seen). cozy seats cheap beer (for a ball game) a fun crowd WIN, WIN, WIN. Definitely going to go to more games next year! read more

I've been trying to experience one of these games after reading about the Northwoods league and all of their marketing activities, and it didn't disappoint me. The stadium was very nice, clean and right off of Lake Michigan. The game was very well played (talented) and they all played hard. Balls flying foul into the crowd or out of the stadium. You may want to park further away...The amenities and fun factor was outstanding. Many activities for the crowd throughout the game and between innings. All of this at a really affordable price that you can take the whole family to. The university could charge for parking but they have chosen not to (Yay Concordia!) Not a bad seat in the house and at least for this game, that very full either. I plan to come back and bring my kids along. We actually sat in the Usinger Uecker Upper Deck and the food was good. We also loved being able to buy some Stormin' Gorman BBQ sauce and it was $2 less here than anywhere else we have purchased it. All of this for a short drive north of Milwaukee. read more

I just got back from my first game at the stadium. It's a wonderfully decorated ballpark. Let's get to the breakdown: GOOD: Concessions Prices Ticket Prices ($11 for a reserved seat with a good view? Only the seats at the Minor League Baseball team I worked for were cheaper!) Atmosphere Giveaways (l got a free seat cushion for just coming in, they offer free haircuts for kids who return foul balls, they throw out t-shirts, give away free) Family Friendly (Loads of children and adults enjoying a nice and relaxing evening) OK: The parking is free but there is a bit of a walk. That walk has been difficult for my 80 year old grandma she had told me but luckily a security guard gave us a ride in his cart. The reason I am giving the experience 4 stars instead of 5 is that their first year growing pains are there but not overwhelming. Switch up your Friday night routine and give this team a shot! read more

I went to my first Chinooks game last night and it was a blast! The games are played at Kapco Park on the Concordia University Wisconsin campus in Mequon. This is the inaugural season and the team is made up of a diverse group of college players (LSU, Notre Dame, Louisville, Seton Hall, etc...) and their opponents are all Wisconsin teams (last night it was the Madison Mallards!) The prices a low ($4 for a beer and $8 for a great, grandstand seat), the stadium is brand, spankin' new, the parking is easy (and free), and the baseball is fun to watch!! read more

A beautiful park, a winning team, cheap beer and food (relative to other baseball experiences) and sitting right along the lake. We'll watch baseball in pretty much any form, but I'm so excited the Northwoods League made it to the Milwaukee area. The Chinooks have some of the cheapest tickets in a comfortable setting - you're close to the action to watch some of the countries top baseball players spend their summer honing their craft. There's plenty to keep the kids entertained and lots of that "minor league" feel in between innings silliness to keep even the most non-baseball friends entertained, as well. read more

A half mile, 200 meters same/same. The lady who claimed it was a half mile has a huge misunderstanding of how far a mile is, they have people in golf carts to drive you if so desire. Game and food for a family of 3 for under $50. What's not to like!?!? read more

I have visited a lot of minor league parks over the years. While this is college baseball players playing in a wooden bat league, the overall entertainment value rates extremely high. Wonderful setting, free parking, inexpensive ticket pricing & below average beer prices exceeding my expectations. The fireworks show last night also exceeded expectations and was a great way to top a wonderful evening of food, conversation with friends, and baseball. My only downside comments are that there were no reserved seats available for 4 to sit together on a busy Saturday night. Also, the entire field is covered with an artificial surface. Only the pitcher's mound was dirt. I'm a purist & would rather see baseball on real grass. Go. Take the kids. Enjoy. read more

Great place for a team outing! Go take your whole team and their spouse or friend it is so affordable for any small to mid size business and it's a fun time! read more

I went to my first Chinooks game on Friday night, and I think I am in love. Immediately following the game, I felt like driving a Chevrolet and eating a piece of apple pie. It's that American. For $8, we got two solid hours of entertainment. Yes - the games go fast! But the team - an assemblage of college players from all over the country, all aspiring to make the big leagues one day - brings back the charm and the heart that baseball deserves and the major leagues seem to have lost. The stadium itself is brand spankin' new and very nice. There are silly activities in almost every inning to keep things interesting for the kids. And there is a diverse menu of food and beverages to please every pallet. I will be back, for I am hooked. (Pun intended.) read more

This is definitely not like going to a Brewers game, but it is great for a family outing if the family in question enjoys baseball as much as ours does. read more

Looking forward to a Chinooks game at Kapco park. We are Waterloo Bucks host family and have a cabin in Port Washington, 10 miles away, so plan on catching games when we are in the area! Not all the teams are in Wisconsin as someone else said. The Northwoods League covers Minnesota, Iowa, Michigan, and even Canada. Your prices are a bit high as Waterloo has grandstand seats for only $5.00, but beer prices are about the same. Looks like another great addition to NWL. read more
