Old St. Ferdinand Shrine, Florissant, Missouri

The Unions will play home matches at the ball field owned by the Knights of Columbus, Duschene Council, and located behind Old St. Ferdinand Shrine in historic Old Town Florissant.  St. Ferdinand's parish was established in 1789 and has been a community center ever since.  The convent wing was built in 1819, with the present church building constructed in 1821.  With such a historically-rich background, it is difficult to imagine a more beautiful and perfect place for vintage base ball.
Admission at home matches is free, so bring lawn chairs or a blanket and have a picnic as you enjoy the game.  We will have light concessions, restrooms, and limited bleacher seating available.
