One of the surest signs of spring in Garfield Ridge and
Clearing is Clear Ridge Baseball's Opening Day Parade.
The annual parade stepped off at 9:00 a.m. Saturday, April 6 at Wentworth Park, marching south on Narragansett to Hale Park.
The parade was halted for about 10 minutes, due to a freight train blocking Narragansett near 59th Street---but the marchers did not let that common Garfield Ridge/Clearing annoyance get them down, and the parade continued its cheerful march down Narragansett.

We at the Southwest Chicago Post wish all players, coaches, managers, parents and grandparents a season filled with fun and good sportsmanship.
And a hearty thanks to Clear Ridge Baseball for many years of providing athletic opportunities for our children. You help make our neighborhoods some of the very best in all of Chicago!
