Coînittee Ln-formed Basebal Diamonds Need Improvements The Bowmanvilie Basebal Association bas requested repairs to bail diamonds'in two Bowmanville parks. In a recent request to the municipality, the association asked tbat a drain be fixed or removed from the lef t field of Memorial Park and tbat wasbrooms be built in Soper Creek Park. t was pointed out that washrooms at Soper Creek are especially needed since the closest ones are at the Visual Arts Centre and not only is there a bail diamond ah the park but a playground as well. Ted Dadson, secretary treasurer of the Basebal Association, said he tbinks the absence of wasbrooms at Soper Creek Park is "a disgrace-to tbis town." Other improvements requested at the Soper Creek bail park is as foilows: construction of a new back- stop and dug-outs and a 12-foot fence for approximately 50 feet in the lef t field; provision of fi for infield and outfieid and the trimming of trees along tbe ieft field fence; and improvements to the rond ieading into the Soper Creek park to eliminate dust. The town's community services committee authorized director Bud Fanning to estimate tbe cost of the renovations at the bal diamonds and report back to the committee. Mr. Fanning said in addition to washrooms, he wouid also like to see dressing and equipment rooms built at Soper Creek. Committee chairman Aif Gray said he, thought council should look at the possibiiity of doing these repairs this year instead of waiting to include them in the 1979 budget. If council waits until then, the teams wiil be piaying bail by the time the work is started.
