However, if you recently observed that the Yellow Jacket weathervane was missing and assumed it was removed for repair during the painting, you’re wrong…there’s a thief lurking! Sometime during the painting
The Baseball Field Has Been Undergoing Renovations!If you’ve driven past the AHHS Baseball Field these past few months, you’ve noticed major renovations going on! It is Head Coach Tommy Elliott’s own Field of Dreams II.
Construction began in November to replace the grass infield with a synthetic all weather turf, move the backstop back to gain more foul territory, replace the old bleachers with new stadium style seating, and remove the chain link fence behind home plate and replace it with friendly spectator netting. There is also a storage facility being built beneath the new bleachers and replacing the press box.
As with any project, it would be sad not to finish it right. There are plans to build an iron and brick entrance to the baseball area, add raised bleachers just behind the first base dugout and replace the outfield chain link fence with a new blue solid metal fence, but these plans cannot be completed without additional support. The AHHS Booster Club is spearheading an effort to raise $42,000 to complete this project.

If you’ve been at AHHS in the past year or so, as some reunion groups have, you might have noticed that the paint was peeling badly on the cupola, the small domed structure on the roof of the building above the front door. But if you’ve been by lately, you’ve seen scaffolding which was there to help the workmen who totally repaired and painted the cupola to bring it back to its original pristine white. What a huge improvement and much applauded!
