Before there was clear indication of financial feasibility or city-wide support for the project, I began creating marketing material to assist the community with their fundraising efforts. Shortly thereafter, the community was able to generate enough funds to turn the project into reality. At that time, I began working on the final site layout and full design packages. With HHE I then led the project through the bidding process and then construction. This project had many complexities that my firm and I worked through including allowing in-kind donation work, a well for field irrigation, designing a concrete Miracle Field, a Premier Field with synthetic infield and custom backstop netting, 6 youth fields with Shakopee lime, and Amphitheater seating. Additionally, this project was completed in phases requiring me to maintain continuous coordination with the architectural firm that was working on subsequent phases.

Three years later, the ~29acre site is transformed into a very well laid out baseball and softball complex maintained and operated by the city.
