Enterprise City Schools celebrated the opening of a new baseball and softball complex on the grounds of Enterprise High School with a dedication and opening ceremony on Thursday, Feb. 17.
As part of the celebration, a check was presented to school leaders from Pilgrim’s Enterprise for $150,000 to fund four covered batting cages as part of the new complex. The donation is part of Pilgrim’s Hometown Strong funds which is the company’s investment in local communities to support immediate and longer-term community needs. Pilgrim’s Enterprise also donated $155,000 to the Enterprise YMCA to fund necessary upgrades to the swimming pool and other renovations in common areas across the facility.
“Pilgrim’s Hometown Strong is breathing new life into some of our community’s key recreational areas,” said David Massey, Pilgrim’s Enterprise complex manager. “We are proud to partner with the YMCA and Enterprise High School to ensure these resources can benefit local families for many years to come.”
“Enterprise City Schools and Enterprise High School truly thank Pilgrim’s for the generous contribution to the newly built indoor hitting facility. By receiving these funds, Enterprise High School was able to fully enclose the facility, and both baseball and softball teams will be able to engage in sport-specific skills throughout the year regardless of weather conditions,” said Trent Trawick, Enterprise High School Athletic Director. “This is very beneficial to our coaches and players as they prepare for the season. Thank you for your support not only to Enterprise High School but the surrounding community as well.”
