NEWBERG, Ore. -- A belated formal dedication ceremony will be held for the concessions and restroom building at Crater fields on the Darnell Wright Sports Complex in Newberg at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 17, 2010 on field #3.
The dedication plaque will be unveiled, permanently affixed to the outside wall of the building.
This facility was constructed largely by volunteers who donated their time, labor and professional expertise. The cost for the building was approximately $74,291 for materials, permits, and engineering. To build this building today without donations would likely exceed $200,000.
The building opened for business in September, 2009. Until that time, a trailer and portable restrooms served during the games.
The ceremony June 17th will be brief. Board member Mike Ragsdale and Park Supervisor will make remarks, thank the volunteers, and a barbeque will be provided for all who attend, including news media. A pitching machine will be on hand for folks to take some swings. There will be regularly scheduled softball games going on in other fields.
If you have any questions, please contact Kat Ricker at (971) 832-4222.
