Today I thought I would post some updated photos from the construction project going on behind the outfield wall near Interstate 40. It is great seeing progress to this project. Not a day seemingly goes by that someone will not ask me “Hey, what is going on behind the ballpark,”which is good that people are at least thinking about the team. Gives us something to sell and talk about.

Countless amounts of trees have been cut down making the park much more visible for approaching cars on I-40.

The large hole in the ground will be a pond with a large fountain. Here is hoping they put some large mouth bass in it!
