Winchester is a beautiful and historic town located in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, less than 10 miles from Boston. While close to Boston and everything the city has to offer, Winchester is a classic New England town that features tree-lined streets, a vibrant town center, a farmer’s market on the common, a great library and 10 churches and other houses of worship (most are located on Church Street, of course). In addition, Winchester is one of the homes to the scenic Middlesex Fells Reservation, a 2,060 acre public park that includes trails for hiking and biking. 

Of course, Winchester is also home to Robert J. Nutile Field, where the 2009 Cal Ripken World Series will be played. Winchester is proud of Nutile Field and we are thrilled to be hosting an exciting week of events for the baseball players and families who will visit us in August 2009. 

Originally settled in the 1630s, Winchester now boasts a population of approximately 20,000 and provides a wonderful springboard for visitors to explore the rich history, scenic beauty, and fascinating sights and sounds of New England. The two closest train stations in the world are in Winchester and are slightly less than a mile apart. From either, you can travel to Boston in less than 20 minutes. Once you arrive in Boston, you can hop on an MBTA trolley and visit almost anywhere in the Boston area! 

Things to see and do in Boston! 

Walk the Freedom Trail, ride the Swan Boats in the Public Garden, explore the Old North Church, or take in the Feast of the Madonna in the historic Italian North End. You can also visit our fantastic museums, including the Children’s Museum, the Science Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, the New England Aquarium, or the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library. For dining or entertainment, Boston has a vibrant theatre district where you can see the Blue Man Group or enjoy a fine meal. Perhaps you’d like to stop by Cheers for a beverage or shop at Quincy Market. You can also check out the music shows at the Bank of America Pavilion. If you just can’t get enough baseball, you might try to visit Fenway Park for a tour or a Red Sox game.

If you want to get away from the city, you can climb aboard the U.S.S. Constitution, you can tour Revolutionary War museums and battle sites like the Battle Green and North Bridge in our neighboring towns of Lexington and Concord, you can go to Crane’s Beach, visit Gloucester or Rockport, relive the rich and haunting history of witchcraft in Salem, rock out at a concert in the Comcast Center, sample the offerings at the Nashoba Valley Winery, cruise the seas on a whale watch, ride the ferry to Provincetown on Cape Cod, or find the Civil War Watch Tower in the Fells Reservation (and marvel at the view of Boston). Caution: this list could go on forever.  

Honestly, aside from the outstanding baseball you will experience on Nutile Field, there is almost no end to the things you can see and do around Winchester. We are excited you are coming to visit, and coming to play ball!
