Little League seeks formal contract, mowing support and scheduling priority for Jack Jones Baseball Complex

Lake Township Board of Supervisors · April 13, 2026

Summary

Knothole League representatives told Lake Township supervisors they want a contract for use of the Jack Jones Baseball Complex, offered to assume mowing costs and volunteer work, and discussed benches with dedication plaques and painting dugouts; the board asked for documentation and tabled color decisions.

Adam Zahnizer and Evan Hoobler, representatives of the Knothole League, asked the Lake Township supervisors to consider a formal contract giving the Little League priority scheduling for the Jack Jones Baseball Complex (JJBC).

“The Knothole League would like a contract with Lake Township for use of the fields at JJBC,” Zahnizer said, offering to cover mowing costs and provide volunteers for park projects. He and Hoobler emphasized the league does not want to take over park operations but wants scheduling priority when other groups request field time. Chairman Fred Elder asked whether the Little League had an existing agreement with Stoneboro borough fields; Zahnizer said there was and he would provide a copy to the township.

The group discussed benches with dedication plaques. Secretary Deanna Yarnell and Chairman Elder noted potential maintenance and storage problems for portable benches and favored a more permanent bench with a plaque; Zahnizer suggested the township could pursue grant funding through Delta Development to cover such purchases. The board tabled a decision on painting the dugouts and color choices until a later meeting.
