Northside Awarded Baseball Tomorrow Fund Grant To Light Carson Raymond Field
The
NCRL Board is excited to announce that Northside Baseball has received a
$41,000 grant from The Baseball Tomorrow Fund to complete the funding
for our Carson Raymond Field Lighting Project.
The
Baseball Tomorrow Fund (BTF) is a joint initiative between the Major
League Baseball Players Association and Major League Baseball designed
to promote the growth of youth baseball and softball throughout the
world by awarding grants to support field renovation and construction
projects, equipment and uniform purchases, coaches training material and
other selected program expenses.
With
the awarding of the grant, NCRL has raised the required amount to
complete the project. Additionally, we have received approval from the
school system to begin the project on March 29th.
We
have worked closely with the schools to best leverage Spring Break to
minimize disruption around their campuses. We expect to complete the
lighting project by the end of April.
