We will be in the Phoenix area from Feb 28 - Mar 28 and plan to attend several Milwaukee Brewers Spring Training games. Just bought tickets to 3 games today...have to wait for the others til they go on sale!

Anybody else enjoy spring training in Arizona?

We were at Salt River Field last spring to watch the Brew Crew and the D'backs game. It is a beautiful facility. There's nothing quite like spring training!

Agreed! The last time we were in AZ for spring training our oldest son was interning with the Crew as their assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach! There's nothing quite like watching your son in the dugout with Robin Yount, Jimmy Gantner, Ryan Braun, Mike Cameron, Prince Fielder, Corey Hart etc etc etc. 2009 will always be our favorite Brewer season ever!

We were thinking of coming to watch our SF Giants. Any recommended RV parks?

Unfortunately, this will be our first time there with our coach so we'll be 'winging it'. We have reservations at Desert Sands RV Park and keeping our fingers crossed that it's decent! Since we're under 55 I had a hard time finding a park in the area...many require that you are over 55.

We were at West Palm Beach at the St. Louis Cardinal's Spring Training in 2001when our son was a Rookie. Our son met Mark McGuire and many other players. Very proud time for us. Our son worked so hard and truly loved the game and still does. He was onhis way to Triple-A when he injured his neck. He is now a Science teacher in high school and coaches baseball. Go figure. We are very proud of him.

What an awesome experience for you and your son! I'm sure he has some wonderful memories...so sorry that his career ended so soon!
