Varsity Field Improvement

drain tile 2drain tile 1Thanks to a cooperative effort between the Mount Horeb School District and the Mount Horeb Softball Club, a new drain tile was installed along the first base line of the varsity field.  This improvement will help with wet conditions that the high school and youth teams have been struggling with in this area of the field.

A big thank you to Derek Dahlk, Finks Paving and Excavating, Ryan Clifton, and Wes Parks for their hard work!!!  Don’t see anything different in the picture?  That’s because these guys do such good work!!! (…and the photographer may have been a little tardy with snapping pictures 🙂 – trust us – it’s in there!

Field Achievements Celebration

Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate the field achievements made this year to the softball facilities! This year, thanks to the support of the Mount Horeb community,  major additions include new bleachers, a concrete pad, a sound system, batting and pitching cages, and resurfacing of the Varsity Field.

Additional improvements are in the works, but it’s always nice to take a step back and acknowledge what we’ve accomplished together.
