Amarillo Park had at least 5 fields for Little League
Mr. Preis, Mr. Ptack, and Mr. Windholz were just a few of the Little League coaches
that made summers so much fun. I played my first Little League game at age 7,
Mr. Preis was my coach. Even though I was a pretty little kid he still let me play catcher.
I wore the number 10 all through the minor league, Ron Santo's number.
There wasn't anything that I looked forward to more than practice and games.

Carpentersville Little League Schedule, not sure what year.
