Picnic with the Big Train

by Harrison Meyers

What could be more fun on a warm summer night than a good meal and a ballgame with family and friends? Click here to learn how to sign up for your party in the Davis Family Picnic Pavilion at Shirley Povich Field this summer.


Whether it is a birthday party, an end of season youth team party, corporate outing, neighborhood get together, or that family reunion you have been meaning to organize for so long, know that parties are better at the ballpark!


For birthday parties and end of season team parties, your kids and their pals will really enjoy running on the field with the Big Train players for the National Anthem. 


You will enjoy the food and drink from our Big Train Home Run Cafe or our picnic partners from Catalyst Hot Dogs, Gregorio’s Trattoria, Kona Ice of Potomac, Denizens Brewing Co., and 7 Locks Brewing. And there will be a moonbounce right next to the picnic pavilion.


"Our entire experience was great. The food at the ballpark, the area for parents to hang out and the kids to play, the ambiance, a beautiful field, all of this made it an incredible baseball experience!" - Eric Custer, Coach of BCC Baseball 11u Cubs
