Mistral Yahoo Group to find out when and where we're playing
The club currently plays in both Boston
and Worcester
BOSTON:
We play in two different locations:
Clemente
Field, Fens area, Boston, MA
Clemente
Field is in Boston's Fens area, located on
Park Drive at Kilmarnock Street. The oval running track is made of
stonedust and is a perfect surface for pétanque. Lights over the
adjoining baseball fields in the summer provide opportunity for extended night
play. Parking is a little challenging - sometimes available around the Museum of
Fine Arts, or a couple of blocks over on Boylston St. Public
Transportation options: (1) Museum of Fine Arts stop on the Green line-HEATH on
Huntington Ave., then walk down Forsyth street, and cut through the Fens to the
playing area. About 10 minute walk. (2) Or Fenway stop on Green Line-RIVERSIDE,
then 10 min. walk down Park Drive.
...and in Boston we also play:
Leif
Erikson Statue, Commonwealth Ave., Boston, MA

Leif Eriksson Statue is on the Commonwealth Avenue mall,
located on Commonwealth Ave, at the intersection of Charlesgate St.
Large stonedust playing area is just behind the statue, with space enough for a
few simultaneous
matches. Park 1 block over at parking meters on Newbury
Street, or take MBTA to Kenmore and walk 5 minutes.
To find out when we play at either of the above locations, join
