Line Drives for Lights Hitting Marathon and Fundraiser!

Earlier this year, NCRL received approval from Albemarle County to install lights on Carson Raymond field at Hollymead Elementary School.   The installation of lights will allow us to expand our field availability by 450 hours a year and improve the quality of our player’s experience.

With a goal to have the lights installed for our Fall Season, the NCRL Board is actively pursuing major donors within our Community.   In addition to these efforts, we have focused our Spring player fundraiser on building awareness to our campaign.

Following our games yesterday, all players received a fundraising packet providing details on our “Line Drives for Lights” Hitting Marathon and Fundraiser.  The event will be held in conjunction with our “Day of Champions Festival”  on June 5th.  All players in our Major, Minor, Rookie and Jr. Rookie divisions will be participating in the event. 

Our player fundraiser goal is to raise $25,000 of the $100,000 needed to light Carson Raymond Field.  We have asked each player to seek financial donations to support their participation in the event.   All donations large or small will help us get closer to lighting Carson Raymond Field.  We have some great prizes to recognize the efforts of our players.
