Home of the Westwinde Wiffleball Tournament

"You can give pre-teens a summer full of trips to a cabin or the cottage or a country club, but what they really need?
Wiffle Ball.
I know this because I have seen The Promised Land of Wiffle Ball, and it is on an otherwise quiet street called Westwinde in Northwest Grand Rapids and it is a testament to the whispered adage that, if you build it, they will come." Read the full story here:
