If you are looking for a little summer fun, consider heading out to Newbridge Bank Park for a little Greensboro Grasshopper baseball fun. This minor league baseball park opened in 2005. The park accommodates 7,000-10,000 people. Seating options range from luxury suites to grandstand boxes to a picnic area in the grass and then plain ole traditional stadium seating (reference).
Last week, we got to watch the Grasshoppers come from behind and beat Haggerstown.* If you are able to go to a home game on Friday or Saturday, you will be treated to fireworks at the end of the game. As seen in the above photo, it is really easy to get close to the field to watch the game and the Greensboro skyline in the background looks beautiful. If you get a chance, please go check it out for yourself and take in a game- a great Greensboro tradition.
*here is the schedule if you are interested.

Heading that way tonight. No fireworks on Thursday, but still a great evening to be out with the crowd.
