Warner Park
Warner Park is a municipal park and ballpark on the northeast side of Madison, Wisconsin near Lake Mendota. Since 2001, Warner Park has been the home to the Madison Mallards, a member of the Northwoods League (baseball). In 2024, the Madison Night Mares, a women's collegiate softball team in the Northwoods League, play their home games at Warner Park. Its stadium, nicknamed the "Duck Pond," was built in 1982 for the now-defunct Madison Muskies and has a capacity of 6,750.[3] The Madison Hatters used the stadium in 1994 as did the Madison Black Wolf from 1996-2000. Today it hosts the Madison East High School and Madison La Follette High School baseball teams. The adjacent football field was formerly the home of the Madison Mustangs, a semi-professional football team that played in the Central States Football League in the 1960s and 1970s. Warner Park contains a multi-purpose facility for community activities. It has a gymnasium, a fully equipped exercise room, a game room and dry and wet craft rooms. Meeting rooms and community rooms are available for rent. The park contains a 9-foot-tall metal replica of the Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World), built in 1950.[4] See alsoReferences
