Board approves $20,000 grant for new baseball scoreboard
Summary
The Milton-Freewater Unified SD 7 board approved a $20,000 grant to replace a deteriorating baseball scoreboard; the district and city worked with the Milton Freewater Area Foundation and plans include inning-by-inning scoring and optional school-name arch panels for other fields.
The Milton-Freewater Unified SD 7 board voted to accept a $20,000 grant to replace the district’s aging baseball scoreboard. Superintendent (speaker identified in the transcript as the report author) said the district and city partnered with the Milton Freewater Area Foundation to secure the funding and planned to meet with city officials to finalize installation plans.
"We will be getting $20,000 for a new scoreboard sign," the superintendent said during the meeting, noting the new scoreboard will show each inning and per-inning scoring. Athletic director Rob Gomez also flagged the opportunity to add arch panels with school names for softball and soccer fields. The motion to accept the grant was moved and seconded and the board carried the motion; the transcript records the motion passed but does not give an exact roll-call tally.
