In the late Summer of 2009 3 Bocce enthusiast, Bill Swanson, Kevin Thies and Chuck Basford met to discuss the possibility of building some Bocce Courts in the Village of McFarland.  Bocce had been played for a couple of years earlier at the Madison Curling Curl (MCC) and on the Wm. McFarland Park field next to the parking lot.  The idea for Bocce was originally thought of by long time MCC member Tuck Botham years earlier.  Tuck has since passed away but his dream of Bocce being played has survived.
