St Croix Recreation Park

consists of two softball diamonds adjacent to each other. The fields have been host to many national softball events including the 1998 and 2004 Canadian Senior Mens Fastpitch Championships, the 2000 Canadian Midget Fastpitch Championship (when Central Frontenac Cyclones went undefeated to win gold), the Eastern Canadian Fastpitch Championships, and numerous other Nova Scotia provincial tournaments.

The main tenants of the park are teams that represent the West Hants Thunder Minor Softball Association and other teams from the West Hants area that use the field for recreational leagues.

The field was also home to the Halifax-Windsor Keiths. The team disbanded after the 2004 Canadian Senior Mens Fastpitch Championships.

The largest crowd known to watch an event at the facility was approximately 5,500 people during the championship game between the Halifax-Windsor Keiths and the Halifax Jaguars for the of the 1998 Canadian Senior Mens Fastpitch Championship. The Jaguars came out on top after a crucial home run hit by Barry Wright.
