Carver Field Revitalization Project

In the links below you will find an estimate breaking down the various expenses associated with the wood section of the fence. The list includes materials only, because the community and ballplayers have donated their labor and time to the proposed project.

Along with getting the community involved with the project, we have incorporated a large portion of the fence into our classrooms at the High School. For example, the Metals courses have committed to cutting, fitting end-caps and welding brackets onto the fence posts, where our Woods Construction courses have committed to surface-planning, jointing and cutting-to-length the 1200 rough pine planks.

We have also linked a cost estimate for the remaining section of chain-link fence. Our goal is to use sections of the old chain-link fence that are not damaged to complete the remainder of the fence back to our new dugouts. We plan to utilize and recycle as much of the old fence as possible and incorporate it into the new proposed fence.

As progress continues at the field, I would like to extend a special thanks to all of the individuals and families that have contributed to the project to date:

Knute Strunk- Sign Donations and Revenue Questing

Ron and Jeff Ellis- Block Dugouts and Labor

We continue to wait information back from the two grants we applied for to help bring restoration to the fence and scoreboard. More information should be available in January concerning these potential funds.

In the upcoming months we will be completing the dugouts with new roofs, benches and storage compartments for bats and helmets. The new infield dirt will be in-place for the winter months and the dugouts are planed to be painted with “MULVANE” and “WILDCATS” added to the back of the dugouts. In the spring, we will be adding the turf to the on-deck circles and coaching boxes and begin construction on the bullpen areas.

Continued Needs:

On each of the dugouts, we have planned for two 8’ x 12’ storage units on the ends for baseball and field equipment storage. The dugouts are being built leaving a 6’ opening for a garage door on each side. Anyone knowing information on or has a good connection to the garage doors would be greatly appreciated.

Again, I can’t express enough gratitude for all of the help and donations the baseball community of Mulvane has donated. Through all of our efforts, we will accomplish restoring the 1956 Carver Facility into a beautiful complex for future generations to enjoy the game of baseball.
