SUN SHELTERS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AT DIAMOND # 1 AT LIONS PARK!
Through the generous donation of time and resources by several community partners, sun shelters have been added to the dug-outs at Diamond # 1 at Lions Park. The Simcoe Minor Baseball Association (SMBA) would like to acknowledge and thank those organizations and individuals that have made this possible:
- Dufferin Construction Company, a Division of Holcim (Canada) Inc., for its generous donation of materials and manpower to construct the sun shelters;
- RONA (Simcoe) for its material and delivery donation;
- Jim Adams Jr. (Chair-Lions Park Committee) for his continued support on our park improvement projects and for providing lunch for the Dufferin Construction crew; and,
- Lee Rabbitts, Norfolk County Community Services Department, for his support and direction in bringing all parties together.
SMBA is very grateful to all parties for their contribution in making this community project possible. We could not have done it without them.
The shelters are a great addition to a beautiful park that will be enjoyed by many for years to come and would not have been possible without these generous donations.
We look forward to their continued support as we look to finish Diamond #2 and/or Diamond #3 in 2012.
THANK YOU!
Tim Dedrick
