CLINTON — As most of you have noticed, sports are in hiding. Some restrictions have been lifted, but not very much.
Teams can now meet with social distancing, no use of any athletic equipment. Basically, the teams can meet with their coaches and run, with some weightlifting as deemed needed.
So, what is happening on the fields of dreams you might ask. For Clinton High School and Clinton Junior High School, quite a bit. At the high school baseball diamond, the visitors’ dugout has been removed and is being rebuilt to match the home team dugout, and there are plans to completely refurbish the infield as was done with the main softball diamond. There is new padding for the softball diamond, concrete backstop also. And at the football field, the track is being resurfaced.
As for the junior high baseball venue, the batting cage and storage shed area are going to be upgraded to include a concession area and ...get ready, restooms!
