Women's Softball League - Antioch Ca

Antioch Ca has some nice softball fields and there are softball leagues running almost every night.  Most of them are men's leagues and there is a mixed league on Tuesdays.

However, Monday night belongs to the Women's Softball League.  The games are fast and friendly; with game time of 55 minutes.  This fall they have 8 teams in one division.  Sometimes they run A and B Divisions.

My Favorite Catcher!  Dineen Riemenschneider!

My wife plays catcher on the Sister Chicks Too!  The Sister Chicks was a team started at our church and it got so big they started another team - Sister Chicks Too!

Dineen has pitched some and played first base too.  She was a catcher on her High School team.

If you are interested in Women's Softball get a team together or let me know and I will put you in touch with my wife.

Hallelujah Night!

Every year Cornerstone Christian Center in Antioch California has Hallelujah Night Celebration on October 31. 

There are rides, food, fun, shows.  In the past they have had a petting zoo and Bouncy Houses. 

One of the most fun parts of Hallelujah Nights is Trunk or Treat!  The parking lot will be lined with cars all decorated and the kids can go by the cars and Trunk or Treat for candy.  As my kids have found it is much quicker to go from car to car than from house to house.  You are also allowed to go around the cars as many times as you want.

Cornerstone Christian Center has generally asked participants to donate a bag of candy when they show up; but I don't think anyone is turned away.  Candy has been collected at the church for weeks in anticipation.

Hallelujah Night in Antioch California is a fun, safe alternative to the traditional Halloween for kids of all ages and their parents.

Cornerstone Christian Center is located at 1745 E. 18th Street in Antioch California.  Overflow parking is available at the Park and Ride located on Hillcrest at Highway 4; there is a free shuttle bus.

I hope you can make it!
