Mustang Way Park is already a state-of-the-art baseball and softball facility. Due to increased attendance and use of the facilities in recent years, the fundraising committee is looking to add additional spectator seating, sun screens, batting cages, and a larger utility shed. Signage will also be added to display team and individual records and accomplishments.

If you are interested in making a donation to the campaign, please contact baseball Coach Matt Miller, softball Coach Jordon Pilcher, or Dewey Hupke.
