Disability-friendly baseball field to receive $1.5 million worth of new amenities
Field of Dreams Baseball, St. Johns County’s disability-friendly baseball field located at Aberdeen Park (1401 Shetland Drive, St. Johns), is set to undergo a major expansion. The project’s $1,513,800 construction contract was approved by the St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting on April 15. To celebrate the start of work on this project, a groundbreaking ceremony will be held at 11:30 a.m. on May 3.
The baseball field will have its existing parking lot expanded, and a new concession building with ADA-accessible restrooms will be added. Saboungi Construction, Inc., was awarded the contract.
The baseball field is home to the Field of Dreams (FOD) Baseball League, a sustainable voluntary organization that provides a safe, ADA-certified facility where children of all ages with mental or physical disabilities can play baseball for free and be an active part of a thriving athletic association. The FOD Baseball League gives disabled children the opportunity to play baseball in an organized league, wear a uniform, have their names announced, participate in the singing of the National Anthem before each game, and be a player on an athletic team.
Aberdeen Park also offers an all-inclusive, ADA-accessible playground.
