Private All-Star Game Family Picnic

Entering its 17^th season the league's free All-Star Game Family Picnic will continue but in a new way! The picnic will now begin before the All-Star Game at approximately 3:00pm. Players, coaches, their families and friends will all have access to the Renegades outdoor party deck on the rightfield line for a private party including food and fun, as well as presentation of the league’s many other awards. Due to catering and space limitations the picnic will require a pre-registration sign-up for all guests here on WRWBL.com. Details on registration will be announced at a later date. Players and families who DO NOT pre-register are still welcomed to attend but will be charged $10 entry at the door. So make sure you register and continue to enjoy our free picnic.
