JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – Dacotah Bank has committed $55,000 to Jamestown Parks and Recreation Foundation to renovate playing fields at McElroy Park.

McElroy Park, located in Jamestown, ND, is the home to youth baseball, fast pitch softball, high school and college baseball and softball programs as well as amateur leagues. Located in the center of the state, McElroy Park is the ideal location for large-scale, high-quality tournaments for convenient access to teams throughout the state. The field renovations will consist of three phases. These phases will provide renovations to the youth complex and Jack Brown Stadium.

“Dacotah Bank is proud to provide meaningful support to the communities we serve, which has been a long-term tradition. We are excited to be part of this renovation that will serve generations to come in Jamestown.” Casey Henderson, Market President, Dacotah Bank.

The first phase of construction is planned to begin in Fall of 2023. This initial phase is anticipated to include a tee ball field, one Babe Ruth field, two Cal Ripken fields, and a restroom and concession building.

“Jamestown Parks and Recreation and Jaybal are grateful to organizations like Dacotah Bank that prioritize supporting needs in the communities they operate in. With each donation we receive, we become that much closer to our goal. We thank Dacotah Bank for making a difference in our community,” Amy Walters, Executive Director, Jamestown Parks and Recreation.
