Packing notes

Turf infields and grass outfields (Shawnee County Parks + Recreation), so pack shoes for both turf and grass.
Kansas summers are hot and windy, and the lake breeze can be strong: bring a canopy with weights, sunscreen and plenty of water.
Spring and fall storms can build quickly; keep rain gear and a layer in the car.
Bring folding chairs and a wagon for gear; plan on a full day at the fields during tournament weekends.
