The town's ballfield-and-rec hub, opened in 1913, a year before Fenway, on land the baseball enthusiast Win Eldredge donated for Orleans kids. Cape Cod Baseball League fans fill the stands for the Orleans Firebirds all summer, and a skatepark, playground, and tennis courts spill across the rest of the property.
