Due to the recent heavy rain, ongoing vandalism, and the continued adjustments needed by the Parks crew to keep the Crystal Lake Park District Lippold Park batting cages operational, we will be closing the batting cages through at least this week and weekend (April 16-April 19).
We recognize that we opened earlier than ideal due to high public demand, and unfortunately did not have sufficient time to fully work through all operational issues. During this closure, we will address outstanding repairs, replace the vandalized component, and continue working on improvements—particularly solutions to help prevent moisture from impacting the equipment. All machines have been turned off, token boxes are secured, and gates are locked. Signage has been posted at the cages.
