posted 11/09/2012 SOUTH COUNTY LITTLE LEAGUE BREAKS GROUND ON CONCESSION STAND
On Friday, November 9, 2012, South County Little League (“SCLL”) broke ground on a concession stand at Lower Potomac Park. During the ceremony, former Board Member Bob Kirk noted that construction of the concession stand is the most recent improvement to the Park based on efforts started more than five years ago when then-SCLL President Jim Orlick challenged him to spearhead an effort to turn the Park into a state-of-the art facility for the community. At that time, the park had largely been ignored since its creation in the 1980s and lacked the fields necessary to allow children at all levels of baseball to play at Lower Potomac Park. In response to the challenge, Mr. Kirk established the SCLL Capital Improvement Committee to raise funds and plan improvements. As a result, over the past five years, working closely with Supervisor Gerry Hyland’s office, the following improvements have been made to the park: solar power was installed to power new scoreboards, two new baseball fields were constructed, a state-of-the-art irrigation system using effluent water from the Noman Cole Water Treatment Plant was installed, and now a concession stand with restroom facilities is being built. Based on these efforts, a new sense of community has been established at the park with children as young as 4 playing baseball on the new tee ball field (built largely by volunteer and former board member Daryl Coffman) alongside teenagers playing baseball on the 90 foot baseball field.
Current SCLL President Rick Hutson noted that these improvements would not have been possible without the efforts of Christine Morin and numerous volunteers who remained active with SCLL long after their children outgrew the league – former presidents Jim Orlick and Bob Buchholz, former Vice President Bob Kirk, former Board Member Daryl Coffman, and former Board Member Bernie Bennick.
During the ground breaking ceremony, the following local businesses were identified as key contributors to the various improvements to the park over the years: Covanta Energy, Foulger Pratt, Vulcan Materials Company, BC Architects Engineers, PLC, Coffman Construction, Scott Long Construction, and Enviro Solutions, Inc. Also in attendance were a few long-time SLCC sponsors: Grant Thornton LLP, Kingstowne Lawn & Landscape and Regal Limousine.
