Think baseball is just a game of billionaire owners paying multi-millionaire players and overcharging families for a day at the ballpark? If you seek a purer (and free) form of the game, head to Golden Gate Park for an afternoon of old-timey “Base Ball.”
Special to The ExaminerWhile the Giants are out of town, Oracle Park is transformed into a science “field of dreams” with up to 25,000 kids and their families exploring every quark of the stadium to discover 100+ interactive exhibits, geeky games, activities and hands-on fun.
Normally, the Murphy Windmill sits majestically, but silently, watching over the southwest corner of Golden Gate Park, as it is no longer needed to pump 40,000 daily gallons of water . But on April 30, the brakes come off. The windmill will turn once again in honor of Kings Day, an annual festival celebrating Dutch culture and traditions. It all starts with an orange-clad bike ride through the park starting at 10:30 a.m.
In fall 2020, the San Francisco Parks Alliance launched its Heart Your Parks fundraising campaign and replaced the faded social-distancing circles in S.F.’s parks with white-chalk hearts to help people maintain six feet between other groups. Thankfully that’s not needed anymore, but Heart Your Parks lives on. Every day through May 21, artists and volunteers will rotate through 30 different parks in The City and create a new heart art project using a mix of natural and non-natural materials.
Every week it seems like San Francisco is getting a brand new park, and this week is no exception. The 4.5 acre Francisco Park peers over the hillside above Aquatic Park and is one of the few privately funded parks that has been gifted to The City. Francisco sits on the location of The City’s first large reservoir ,which was built in 1859 and has sat unused since 1940.
