The sound of the ball hitting a mitt. The smell of freshly cut grass on a warm summer evening. Smiles and cheers as our hometown kiddos slide into the plate...

Our dream is to bring baseball back to downtown Minong - BUT - we need your help!

We've been working incredibly hard digging up the field, cutting baselines, and salvaging old fencing. Our next step is to bring in baseball dirt... which is quite an expense. We'd love to raise $3000 to help cover the cost of the dirt, fencing, and repairs!

UPDATE:
I'll continue to update the cost breakdown as we encounter new expenses. This week we had our baseball dirt delivered, got the outfield fence up, and got our new homeplate and pitching rubber in! We were also able to hold our first practice on the field! Still a lot of work to get done, but it's coming along - and quickly!

COST BREAKDOWN:

Baseball dirt + Delivery = $1700
Mound/Batter's Box Clay = $400+
Plate + Bases + Pitching rubber = $200
Outfield Safety Fence + Posts = $400+
Foul Poles & Dugout Repairs = $150
Misc Materials & fuel = $100
Trash Cans for Dugout = $50
PortaPotty = $520

Total: $3,500+

All of your donations will be helpful in securing future grants for our baseball/softball programs and future field repairs/upgrades!
