IT'S ALL FALL TO NACKA KICKBALL!

Monday, September 22nd at 10:29 p.m. marked the 2014 Autumnal equinox - thrusting us folks up in the northern hemisphere right into the clutches of fall. From falling leaves and colder temperatures to longer nights and pumpkin carving...fall is a season that is preferred by many, enjoyed by most, and celebrated by all. However, there are some differences between the average person and the NACKA Kickballer when it comes to this festive season.


The Fall Season for the Average Person vs. The Fall Season for the NACKA Kickballer
