York Institute Ball Field

This project utilized grant money from the Baseball Tomorrow Fund organization, a joint effort between Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Asssociation to  construct a baseball field at the York Institute.  Previously there was only one field available in the county.  This field was utilized by the Babe Ruth League, men’s softball league, and as a soccer field.  Scheduling use of the sole field was chaotic and created significant stress and conflict within the community. 

A design for the buildings was developed by the building trade's class of York Institute and construction was completed utilizing funds from the Baseball Tomorrow Fund and local, matching funds.
