Picnic

It’s Base Ball, 1864 style at Spencer Peirce Little Farm! These fun, historically accurate games feature underhand pitching and no gloves are allowed. A ball bounced once and caught is an out! Snacks, baseballs, and cards are available for purchase. Come and see for yourself how this game was played in the 1860's. The teams playing represent actual teams that played in New England during the 19th Century!

Join the Essex Base Ball Organization in supporting Jan’s Pitch for Breast Cancer and the Arts to raise money for cancer research and to fund art education in inner city schools in Lawrence, Mass. Games feature teams from all over New England playing 1860s base ball.

Come enjoy a hamburger, a hot dog and some ice cream with members of our Police Departments. This is being put on by the Community Impact Unit. It is welcome to all. Come say hello!

Make time for a traditional boiled lobster or lobster roll, chowder, or chicken, etc. and catch up with your Beverly friends and neighbors at Lynch Park. As you enjoy fresh lobster at picnic tables under the big tent, local bands will provide an oceanside soundtrack for your listening or dancing delight. Meanwhile, local businesses, elected officials and politicians, and nonprofit organizations will be set up around the park to share information – and usually some fun lawn games – with you.
