The property at Duffy's Lane and Emil Kolb Parkway is actually owned by the TRCA and due to this, the Town will manage the sports park as parkland. The Town and TRCA have several such agreements already, for Jack Garratt Park, Dick's Dam Park, Edelweiss Park, and the Palgrave Tennis Club.  "Today is an exciting day for Caledon youth as we continue to add to our sports parks with two new baseball diamonds,” said Mayor Allan Thompson in the Town's announcement.  “As we continue to grow, it is important to invest in outdoor amenities to stay active and involved within our community. I look forward to seeing the Caledon Minor Baseball Association playing in these diamonds and games being enjoyed by families, friends and residents."  --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2022-08-18 16:36:50 Post date GMT: 2022-08-18 20:36:50 Post modified date: 2022-08-18 16:36:55 Post modified date GMT: 2022-08-18 20:36:55 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
