Besides seeing your team name etched on the Rock of Champions, what would you like to see added to Little Fenway in 2010 ? Same question for Little Wrigley ?

Pat,
I love the idea of flying TRF team flags at Wrigley across the outfield. That's one of the signature parts of Big Wrigley and I think the look would be incredible at Little Wrigley. Especially the Banana Hammocks flag.

Jim, I totally agree....Mario has an early design....each one needs to be about 1x2 ft approx....it might be tricky to get all 24 and have them fit and fly nicely...other option is just the winners...do you want to discuss with Mario and see what you think...vertical space is i think about 5 ft and there are 3 columns of flags at Wrigley...i'm definitely in on doing the flags for this year, we just need to agree on sizes, number, material, and then figure out how/where to get them made...thanks !

I know a third field would be asking alot! BUT, if you add a field to expand the number of teams, I personally think the icing on the cake would be Yankee Stadium (fancy that). But all and all, Pat you and your family are not only an asset to your community but to mankind, keep up the great work and see you next year, your Jersey friend, Rich Goldstein |

What is Little Wrigley?
Little Wrigley is a unique 1/4th scale replica of Chicago's Wrigley Field in the backyard of Pat & Beth O'Connor's house in Essex, Vermont.
It was built in 2007 (modeled after Little Fenway) to increase tournament capacity and is used exclusively for Wiffle ball games. Several major charity fund-raising tournaments are held at Little Wrigley every year.
To date, over $1.2 Million has been raised for various charities. Smiles, laughter, and warm memories are the name of the game at Little Wrigley.
