Project Description
In June of 2013 Zach Sutton, President of the Madison Baseball Association approached the Agency about building baseball diamonds for the city of Rexburg. The diamonds would help facilitate practices and future baseball tournaments. The Agency felt that the fields would improve the city and help draw people into the city of Rexburg. Mr. Sutton requested funding from the agency to enable the construction to start. The Agency is still in contact with Madison Baseball Association and the project is still under discussion.
Although nothing has been done to further the development of the Baseball Diamonds project in 2014, the Agency has committed $370,000 in support of its efforts. As preparation takes place for the new Rexburg Super Wal-Mart, an agreement has been decided that the top soil from the Super Wal-Mart construction area will be donated to the field and used for leveling the land. Completion of the Baseball Diamonds is projected during 2017.
