HAVE YOU SEEN THEM YET? - Scoreboards for Blaine Baseball Complex are installed!
CONGRATULATIONS! They are installed! Thanks to the fundraising efforts of the BALL Board Members and dedicated parents, and a generous matching contribution from the City of Blaine, the BBC will be getting some new scoreboards with wireless controllers installed in time for the Spring 2008 season. The groundwork has been completed, literally. The trenches have been dug and the required electrical lines have been placed and covered. The posts have been erected and the scoreboards have been installed and connected.
Next spring look for this new addition to the Blaine Baseball Complex and feel proud that you were a part of making it happen.
