Boston - 2024

Home base for Boston! Breakfast is pre-paid and on site. There is also a restaurant on site where we will have dinner on Friday night.

Saturday afternoon we will split into groups and race to complete a scavenger hunt in the Boston Museum of Science. We will eat at the museum, have the option of enjoying a movie in the Omnimax dome, and exploring the exhibits individually after lunch.

Dinner Saturday is from 7pm - 9pm at Pazza on Porter!

Sunday we will enjoy a baseball game at Fenway Park! Fenway Park is a baseball stadium located in Boston, Massachusetts, less than one mile from Kenmore Square. Since 1912, it has been the ballpark of Major League Baseball's Boston Red Sox. While the stadium was built in 1912, it was substantially rebuilt in 1934, and underwent major renovations and modifications in the 21st century. It is the oldest active ballpark in MLB. Because of its age and constrained location in Boston's dense Fenway–Kenmore neighborhood, the park has many quirky features, including "The Triangle", Pesky's Pole, and the Green Monster in left field. It is the fifth-smallest among MLB ballparks by seating capacity, second-smallest by total capacity, and one of nine that cannot accommodate at least 40,000 spectators. Fenway has hosted the World Series 11 times, with the Red Sox winning six of them and the Boston Braves winning one. Besides baseball games, it has also been the site of many other sporting and cultural events including professional football games for the Boston Redskins, Boston Yanks, and the Boston Patriots; concerts; soccer and hockey games (such as the 2010 NHL Winter Classic); and political and religious campaigns. On March 7, 2012 (Fenway's centennial year), the park was added to the National Register of Historic Places. It is a landmark at the end of the Boston Irish heritage trail. Former pitcher Bill Lee has called Fenway Park "a shrine". It is a pending Boston Landmark, which will regulate any further changes to the park. The ballpark is considered to be one of the most well-known sports venues in the world and a symbol of Boston.

While most of us are leaving before dinner on Sunday night, those that remain will get to enjoy dinner at a local whiskey pub.
