Sun Prairie School District seeks approval for Miracle League field at 160 South Street

The Sun Prairie Area School District held a meeting on May 27, 2025, to discuss the progress of the Miracle League Field Project. The committee emphasized its commitment to leading fundraising efforts for the construction of the field, highlighting the importance of collaboration with the Miracle League of Dane County.

During the meeting, it was clarified that the Miracle League of Dane County is not expected to provide financial contributions for the project. Instead, the partnership will focus on working together to facilitate fundraising activities, with the Sun Prairie School District taking the lead. The district confirmed that there would be no financial investment required from its budget for the construction, aside from in-kind support from the business office to manage fundraising efforts.

The school district will also be responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the Miracle League field once it is built. This includes treating the field similarly to other district facilities, ensuring it is well-maintained and secure. Major repairs and upgrades will be incorporated into the district's capital maintenance plan, managed by the facilities and grounds director.

The committee is seeking approval to proceed with the construction of the Miracle League field at the site located at 160 South Street, near the Bank of Sun Prairie Stadium. This project aims to provide a dedicated space for children with disabilities to participate in sports, fostering inclusivity and community engagement.

Overall, the meeting underscored the collaborative spirit of the project and the school district's commitment to supporting the Miracle League initiative. Further steps will be taken to finalize the construction plans and secure necessary approvals.
