🎃 Tour of Fenway Park

Posted 3 years ago by the Penpol Pumpkins

This afternoon we were fortunate enough to have an awesome guided tour of Fenway park where we were able to learn all about the history of the stadium, how it’s evolved over time and how they’re using modern technology to grow their own food to use in the restaurants on site – they even have a computerised irrigation system to help their crops grow.

“Fenway Park was really interesting because there were so many thing that we were shown, and they all had meaning and we learnt about them in detail. I understand baseball now!” – Ethan

“My favourite part of the tour was going to the highest stands called the Green Monster, and we sat in the same chairs that the celebrities sit in when they come to watch a RedSox game” – James B
