  • junedale was a great park. I played there from age 7 until age 15. the senior league world series were there in the 1960s into the 1970s. great memories.
  • does anyone have pictures of the teams
  • I need junedale pictures for the years of 1977, 1978, 1979 please let me know how to find them, thanks in advance
  • do you have team pictures???
  • My dad was an umpire there in the 70's, and has since passed. Something has made me think about a fellow umpire, let's see, my dad was in his 20's in the 70's.... there was an older black man, umpire, whose name I can't remember... it was Royal (first name), or something Royal (last name). For some reason tonight he came into my thoughts. His name eludes me. But he was the nicest man, treated my & my sister (we were NOT 10 years old), like his own kids. Sweet man. I do know that he passed in the late 90's. If anyone know that name, please let me know. it's driving me crazy!
  • and into the very early 80's, I grew up there, my dad was an umpire..... Do you remember (I don't remember what year, i'll say '79) Bugs Bunny flew out to the field in a helicopter.... kicked the home plate umpire in the butt, kicked dirt on his shoes..... threw out the first pitch then left? That's one of my best memories (senior league world series).
  • Hey, I played at Junedale then and if you still want team pictures, I can find some. I'll check back here in a few days.
  • Did you find any
