This Saturday, October 4, the Farmers Branch Historical Park and the Farmers Branch Mustangs Base Ball Club will be hosting the 2014 All Play Ball event at the Historical Park from 1-3 PM. Please come to the Park to try your hand at playing 1860's base ball with the Mustangs. There is no base ball knowledge or experience necessary to give the game a try. Participants will be given a free Mustangs T-shirt.

Also during the All Play Ball, Tracy Lawson will be on site presenting the fashion and attitude of 1860's base ball spectators. She'll have clothing, accessories, items, and references from the Civil War era. If you would like to support the Mustangs without joining the team, have them come and speak to Tracy about becoming 1860's spectators! There will also be blacksmithing demonstrations occurring from 12:30-2:20 near the log cabins.
