Trenton R-9 Board of Education Approves Baseball Field Agreement, Reviews Summer School

Trenton R-9 Board of Education has approved a baseball field user agreement for two years; and a summer school contract for three years.

For use of the Burleigh Grimes baseball field, Trenton R-9 will pay $200 per day, on game days only, to the Trenton Park Department which includes a one-time field preparation and rental. Eight baseball games are planned at home next spring. There will be no charge when Grimes is used for practices.
