WHAT IS A BALL DROP?
Numbered ping pong balls will be dropped from a lift over the Field of Dreams at Elm Street Park. Each purchaser buys a ticket and the number on the ticket will be written on a ping pong ball and placed in a container for the drop. The winners are the people with the number matching the number on the first, second and third balls ending up on or closest to the designated target below the drop site.
Cost: $1 per ball $5 for 7 balls. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE PRESENT TO WIN.
