After 30 years of neglect at the ball diamonds at McCulley-Robertson Recreation Park, “we are paying the price,” says Peter Haynes, the president of the Muskoka Hornets Baseball Association. “We have a facility that is tired.”<\/p>\n

In recent months, Huntsville’s Town Council has balked at the estimated $2.2 million price tag of needed repairs and upgrades to the baseball facility at McCulley-Robertson and other organizations that use the recreation park have stepped forward to say that their facilities are in need of some funding, too. Haynes doesn’t dispute those needs, but wants to make it clear that the high cost of what’s needed for baseball is a result of limited capital expenditure into the facility for three decades.<\/p>\n

“If you divide $2.2 million by 30 years of neglect, that\u2019s really $70,000 a year in (capital expenditure),” says Haynes. “If you look at it in those terms, I think that the number becomes a little bit more absorbable. It\u2019s kind of like a generational tax on the current generation that the past generation has passed on.”<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

The ball diamonds were moved to McCulley-Robertson from near the arena in the mid-1980s. A hardball diamond was built the following decade. Two of the original diamonds were later turned into soccer pitches. There are now three baseball diamonds and one hardball diamond at the facility.<\/p>\n

After falling on hard times, the Muskoka Hornets minor baseball program has seen a resurgence over the past 10 years. Adult leagues have been popular as well. Haynes estimates that there are about 1,000 players that use the facility each week in the summer: 260 for minor baseball, 350 in men\u2019s slopitch, approximately 200 for ladies slopitch, 36 for men\u2019s fastball, 120 for the mixed league, and another 25 for the senior league for a total of about 75 local teams. There are also about 125 volunteers that support those various programs.<\/p>\n

The facility’s other major user group, the Huntsville Soccer Club, “has been a very good citizen and they always come with money in hand, I totally respect that,” says Haynes. “I would love nothing else than to have the same reputation in the community that the soccer program has built over 20 years. They have put in the hard labour to build those relationships with councillors and to build a program that is sustainable and certainly something for the Huntsville community to be proud of. What we have done with the Hornets is basically start from ground zero 10 years ago…and transformed our minor program into something to be extremely proud of in the same vein as soccer.”<\/p>\n

He notes that the Muskoka Hornets have also, in recent years, begun to invest in the facility. They built the bunker on diamond F two years ago as well as the base for the new batting cage on diamond F this year, at a cost to the association of between $15,000 and $20,000 for the two projects.<\/p>\n

Haynes also says that the diamonds are in use every day of the week by the various leagues and every other weekend for tournaments. By comparison, he says that he has observed that the soccer pitches at McCulley-Robertson are rarely used on weekends.<\/p>\n

“By my calculation, last summer there were eight baseball tournaments at the facility that brought in over 2,000 people, most of them from out of town,” says Haynes. All of the tournaments hosted by the various leagues brings, “in my estimation…a million dollars in foot traffic for the local community between hotels, restaurants and other spending.” The Muskoka Hornets’ annual tournament, the Muskoka Cup sells out with close to 60 teams turned away this year. “People want to come, they love coming to Muskoka and hopefully that can continue. We want to make our facility look a little bit better for when they do come.”<\/p>\n

Haynes says that given the number of users at the ball diamonds and the number of years that have passed with no major investment in the baseball facility, “I\u2019m disappointed that we\u2019ve gone to a point where it\u2019s now going to have to be a shared expense.”<\/p>\n

The association’s ask, which Haynes says is in line with that of the other user groups at the facility, included a new infield surface, warning tracks, fencing, lights, an increased length on diamond B, and an irrigation system. Of those, the infield and the warning tracks are most important to the association for player safety, but they are two of the issues that “the Town was not in alignment with the users on, which is very disappointing. They didn\u2019t want to install warning tracks and they wanted to keep a similar surface to what\u2019s there right now. We are hoping they listen to the users on both of those things.”<\/p>\n

The Hornets would like to see a clay surface in the infield, ideally one similar to the new surface at the diamonds at Kerr Park in Bracebridge. “It’s easily manageable by Town staff once they are taught how to manage it and it\u2019s what I would consider to be best of breed,” says Haynes.<\/p>\n

As for the other requests, the fencing needs repair or replacement and the lights are old and have few fixtures at the top compared to a typical baseball facility, but the irrigation system is a nice-to-have feature and the shorter length of diamond B could be mitigated by fencing.<\/p>\n

Each of the McCulley-Roberston stakeholder groups met one-on-one with Town staff and representatives from consulting group WSP on November 7. The results of those meetings will be presented at the November 26 Regular Council meeting, but the Hornets’ requests are in line with what the other ball diamond user groups are asking for. Infield material and warning tracks are top priority, although both the men’s fastball and slopitch leagues were less specific on the type of material and said they just wanted something that would improve performance.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, Haynes would like to see the community foster baseball along with all of the other minor sports in the community. “We need the facilities in order to do so and that\u2019s what we are looking for right now.”<\/p>\n
