The Goal

Of course our ultimate goal is to have a single, multi-field Little League Complex of our own. Until then, we must maintain the facilities that we currently use.

Below is a list of improvement projects that were planned/completed for our fields in the 2004 season. If you have time, materials or expertise that can be used on any of these projects, please contact a Board Member.
