Parade Ground, Van Cortlandt Park

My grandpa Ray Sr. was a shutterbug, and this is my Dad's neighborhood team. They hailed mostly from the Fordham Road area. It's Grandpa's writing and my Dad, Ray Jr., is the black-haired boy in the second row holding a glove. \--Carolyn Crapo
Can You Feel the Beat: Free Outdoor Summer Concert Spaces in NYC
Story
One of the best parts of a summer in New York City is the wide array of free outdoor programs. There’s nothing like lying back in the grass while hearing crisp notes dance from a trumpet at Kingsborough’s Lighthouse Bandshell. There's nothing like watching the Delacorte Theater reawaken the words of Shakespeare under a starry night. Part of what makes our city so special is that it unites communities and cultures with free arts performances. While we won’t be able to share these moments in the summer of 2020, this story celebrates those experiences in all five boroughs. We hope to see you there next year!

Van Cortlandt Park, the Bronx, at the ballfields. probably the parade grounds on Broadway north of the Van Cortlandt Mansion. Perhaps Indian Field in Woodlawn before the Deegan bisected the Park.
