Vintage Baseball Game

August 2, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm

Ely Field, North Main Street opposite Jefferson Street, Lambertville

Step back in time and enjoy the Grand Old Game as it was played long ago when two vintage baseball teams, The Logan Club of Lambertville and The Flemington Neshanock, square off using the rules and equipment from 1864.

“The Lambertville Historical Society is excited to host vintage baseball for a third year. Baseball played an important role in the social and cultural life of Lambertville during the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. Perhaps at least in some ways, the past is not so different from the present,” says LHS trustee Ed Hoag.

This family-friendly event is sponsored by LHS and the City of Lambertville. Admission is free; donations are welcome. The game will be played in sunshine or light rain (there is no rain date) and is expected to last about 90 minutes. Traditional baseball game food – – hot dogs, chips and soda – – will be sold to benefit The Kalmia Club.
