Saline Area Youth Baseball and Softball (SAYBS), a local nonprofit organization, has completed resurfacing projects at two City of Saline baseball fields. The field at Brecon Park and field #3 at Tefft Park (Saline Rec Center) have undergone a complete leveling and resurfacing. The project was completed by MVP Athletic Fields on Wednesday April 24. Total investment into the project was $14,750.
“Our organization is proud to invest in our community to ensure our ball fields continue to be some of nicest and most desirable in the area for years to come for ball players of all ages,” SAYBS President Joe Mierkowicz said.
SAYBS is funded by contributions from local businesses and donors, as well as player registration fees. The local non-profit has been providing the opportunity to play baseball and softball to Saline Youth since 1980. The organization provides House and Travel baseball and softball progams each spring for boys and girls aged 4-14 years old.

Would urge the city to NOT privatize the Rec Center or sell it.
Ali. There is a reason you don’t understand. You choose not to. Investing in our seniors health and wellbeing is much more important than investing in a recreation center that has continued to lose money and only serves a small portion of our city’s community.
We are seniors and fully familiar with both facilities. Perhaps what is not understood is the number of seniors who use the Recreation Center, in particular the aquatic center as arthritis for many of us means water is one of the few ways we can exercise. Many of course also use other areas of the facility.
EDIT: The Saline American Legion was a sponsor for this event, supplying the food for guests. SASC is grateful for their continued support.
Kudos to The Saline American Legion. They have been a consistent contributor to the SASC. Seniors in our community have earned and deserve the benefits that the senior center offers. Great work!
