update on Ball Park

We have a lot to be excited about that will happen in the next few months. We will complete our new park complex in time for baseball games this summer. This 23 acre park will feature four new baseball/softball fields and the crown jewel of our area will be the $200,000.00 field that will be built and paid for by the St. Louis Cardinal’s Redbird Rookie program. We will complete the construction of three other fields, one lighted, and a parking lot big enough to park all the cars we need. There will be a centrally located concession stand and modern restroom facilities. In the future we have room to develop a walking path around the complex, shaded picnic areas, and perhaps a soccer field. Sesser will have a complex here that will be the envy of a lot of area towns. It will be unheard of for a town our size.

We are in the midst of building a new little league ballpark complex on the East side of town. This park will be the home of a very nice field that the St. Louis Cardinals baseball organization will be constructing and the city will build at least two adjoining fields. Eventually this area will have a walking track, soccer fields, picnic area and other recreational activities for our families and their guests to enjoy.
update on the ball park

Mayor Ned Mitchell talked on the plans for the new ball park at the Chamber meeting on November 27 2007. One new field will be built and paid for by the St Louis Cardinals. The land has been purchased by the City of Sesser and has been surveyed and cleared. The future complex will include four fields, parking area, walking track and possibly a soccer field and picnic area etc. in the future.
