  Vince Genna Stadium is a historic ballpark in Bend, Oregon, home to the Bend Elks of the West Coast League. Built in 1947, the stadium hosted high school, American Legion, and semi-professional teams before professional baseball arrived in 1970. Over the following decades it welcomed a string of minor league affiliates, and actor Kurt Russell famously played second base there in 1971. When the ballpark faced demolition in 2000, a community-led Save-Our-Stadium Committee stepped in to preserve it, and the Bend Elks organization began play that same summer. Today the stadium offers several group and private rental spaces for events. The BBQ Deck, down the third baseline, holds 12 to 100 guests and can be divided into two sections or booked as one unit. The Bistro Deck, at field level next to the visitor's dugout, seats 20 and accommodates up to 30 with standing room, putting guests close to the action. For larger private gatherings, the Beer Garden along the first baseline offers a fully private area with a service counter, grill, and beer on tap, available for groups of 50 or more on Wednesday games. Recently, the stadium earned DarkSky Certification following a major lighting upgrade.
