Softball Season Underway
Summer is just around the corner and so is the start of the Woods Hole 2007 softball season. What better way to enjoy the outdoors, get some exercise, and meet new friends than by joining fellow employees on the MBL softball team? All are welcome to play in this fun and occasionally competitive softball league. Test your softball prowess against other league teams including WHOI Carpenters, Facilities, Biology, Chemistry, and Procurement departments, as well as the Falmouth Post Office, and the U.S. Geological Survey.
Weekly games begin around Memorial Day and last throughout the summer. All games are played either at Belltower Field in Woods Hole village or at McKee Field (located on the WHOI Quissett campus).
