Packing notes

Northern Illinois springs start cold and windy: bring layers, rain gear and blankets for early games.
Summer afternoons get hot and humid; bring a canopy or other shade, sunscreen and plenty of water.
It's a big complex with soccer, volleyball and BMX too, so allow extra time to park and find your diamond on busy weekends.
