During the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, Gary Duquette and I went to Post 1619 to inquire about the possibility of a developing a baseball field on their property.

It started with a simple meeting with Ron Poland. Take a look at it now.

Thanks to a number of community supporters, businesses and people, this vision continues to progress.

Casella Waste Systems, Inc. provided us with a first-class scoreboard.

Luck Bros. provided us with a new backstop.

Clinton County provided us with a concession stand/press box.

Our next Capital projects include turfing the field, improved lighting, and bleacher seating.

We won’t stop until it is the pride of the North Country.

Tom Browning…a great pitcher, world champion & owner of a perfect game was born on this date in 1960. Sadly we lost him way too early. #RIP.
