Our Field of Dreams
| The 2008 baseball season will be the ninth season in the Maize High School Baseball
Facility. Construction of the field began in the summer of 1998, and since that time,
many improvements and additions have been made. The fence and dugouts were completed
in 1999 and the first double-header was played April 6, 2000. The coaches, players, and
fans of the 2001 season enjoyed new turfed batting cages, individual storage
compartments and bench seats in the dugouts and a storage facility in the visitors'
dugout. Box seats, the parking facility and the center field "Home of the Eagles" sign
were new additions in 2001. The Eagle sign on the visitors' dugout and the new Junior
Varsity field were also added. The pressbox and concession stand/restrooms were
completed in the Spring of 2003. In 2004, locker rooms were added for umpires, coaches
and players. For the 2006 season, a new scoreboard, a new sound system, additional
bleachers, a new infield dragger, a reel mower, and pads in the dugout were added. The
entire varsity infield was also resodded. A great deal of this work has been
accomplished by many volunteer hours from parents, players and coaches. A player
clubhouse and an indoor practice facility are two items that remain on the drawing
board for this complex that we are proud to call our "Field of Dreams." |
