Tuesday Night Recreational Volleyball with BBQ
I wanted to let you know about a fun event that will be happening every Tuesday night all
summer long.
When this is:
Every Tuesday night
Starts First Tuesday in May
All Summer long
6pm - sunset
What this is:
This is sand volleyball in Oakbrook Terrace at Drennan Park..
Hanging out in the park.
This is just pure fun.
A little confusing to get to at first (see map & directions)
What this is not
This is NOT a league.
This is definitely NOT serious volleyball.
There are no umpires.
Can't play? - That's OK, we don't care. We're not that good anyway.
We'll even attempt to teach you although we're not qualified. We're there for fun.
Don't want to play? - That's OK too. Just come and hang out with us.
I am usually there.

"We managed to get a couple games in before the rain came. Everyone was really nice, and we had a blast. After it rained, we hung out under the kiosk and talked, and people stayed around for a while. It was a nice time!"
