Letter to NHHS baseball players

To: All Former North Haven High School Baseball Players
>
> The NHHS Baseball Team finally has a permanent home – a sodded, lighted, enclosed field – after a long seven-year wait. Unfortunately no money was allocated for fencing, dugouts, bullpens, etc. The lack of fencing creates a number of problems as the baseball and softball teams hit into each other.

> At this point in time, no school money is available for this project. My reluctant role is to fund raise as a fence is desperately needed. I am contacting members of all former teams requesting a small donation. My hope is that each team would sponsor one 10’ x 4’ section of portable fencing, costing approximately $160.00 each. We would need 56 sections of fence for the field. Whatever donation each team member could make to reach that cost would be sincerely appreciated. A sign or plaque would indicate the sponsorship of each section, noting the team year and accomplishments.
