Should the Rec Facility Study determine that Hammond Community Park is a feasible location for the new facility and the project progresses to the next step, the baseball fields will be relocated and improved upon based on community and user group engagement.
The project team will continue to engage with the user group(s) who currently use the baseball fields to identify their current needs and ensure the plans for relocation and creating a new facility meets their needs and exceeds expectations where possible.
The legacy of Larry Walker is integral to the future, reimagined baseball fields. The City will work to continue to honour the legacy of Larry Walker and his contributions to the grassroots growth of baseball in Maple Ridge.
