      camp free jacks

      Time to Party like it’s the last day of camp, on the last day of summer. 

      Grab the Tie-Dye, squeeze on those denim cut-offs and celebrate the day with friends old and new! Let’s learn what we love about apples at the Cider Fest while we listen to 70s jams from ‘The Great Escape’ and soak up the nostalgia with classic camp activities. 

      Make your way to the field to watch the Free Jacks take on Dallas Jackals, and then close out the day as we welcome fans to the field to get funky with Booty Vortex. 

      Oh, and, hey let’s promise that in 10 years from today, we’ll meet again and we’ll see what kind of people we’ve blossomed into.

      free jacks take on Dallas Jackals

      Sunday June 2, 2024

      Dallas Jackals return to Veterans Memorial Stadium on June 2nd to take on Free Jacks for the second year in a row. 

      In 2023 the Jackals came to Quincy and offered a physical, abrasive performance that resulted in the closest game of the 2023 season for New England. Free Jacks secured a one-point lead and took the win, but walked away with unfinished business. Dallas had a successful inaugural season and seemed to be getting better with each game, promising to offer a rough high contact challenge in 2024. 

      Be sure to catch this fast paced high contact game live from Veterans Memorial Stadium. 

      POST GAME PARTY

      We got the funk, gotta have that funk.

      There’s no better community experience in sports than a Free Jacks Post Match Party.

      After the final whistle, fans, players, owners, opposition and the Quincy community are welcomed to the field to continue the fun.

      Get ready for the finest, funkiest musicians from across New England have banded together to play the groovy tunes from the 70s. These timeless disco, funk songs will have you shakin’ what yo’ mama gave ya!

      Hey “Mr Big Stuff” Dust off your “Dancing shoes”, “Move on Up”  and get ready for some “Sweet Soul Music”.

      Join us on the field and Experience the power of Booty Vortex who’ll leave you feeling “Superfly”.

      How’D you Like Them Apples – Cider & Seltzer Fest

      Get ready to raise a cup at the How’d You Like Them Apples Cider & Seltzer Fest, where orchards meet bubbles in a celebration of all things awesome. 

      Enjoy ciders from many regional cider mills, including Free Jacks official cider, Stormalong, handcrafted hard cider made with love in MA and 100% locally sourced fresh apples.

From dry, traditional ciders bursting with fresh apple goodness to sweet, fruit-infused concoctions that taste like apple pie in a glass, your taste buds will be dancing while your feet are stomping to the groovy funk of Booty Vortex.
