Baseball 4 All - Presentation

History

Alex Snodsmith, Co-Chair of the LiveWell Committee will be presenting a check to Baseball 4 All on behalf of the Village Employees.

 

A total of $2,487 was collected from several different fundraisers organized by the LiveWell Committee that Village Employee's participated in over the year for Baseball 4 All.

 

Baseball 4 All is an organization that is proposing to create a baseball field that will be fully accessible, and ADA compliant for participants and spectators of all ages.

 

The Village is fully supportive of the community efforts to raise funds for the placement and development of a baseball field. Resolution 1716 was passed on July 3, 2017, stating the Village is in support of establishment of Village baseball fields accessible and usable by people with special needs.

 

A site has been identified within the John Humphrey Field Complex for such baseball field. The field will accommodate participants and spectators with special needs and will be fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
