    Re: Field improvements

    Re: Field improvements

    For a team a few years ago that had 50 people per game, this is a good side upgrade. If we were to sell out every seat in the house, we would be top 30 in attendance. Those little bleachers we built...

    Re: Field improvements

    I wonder if the right field grand stand will be brand new bleachers or if they will reuse some of the old ones. Either way it will round out the stadium and make it look bigger.

    Are these going to be ground level or the fancier ones dug into the ground with steps and drains and stuff? I'm not even sure what kind do we have now?
