Augie Schmidt Baseball Field Renovations

Description

Camosy has completed many projects for Carthage College starting in 1961. Among these projects is the site redevelopment for a new baseball diamond. The diamond includes a synthetic turf infield with a major league-grade sod outfield. The same supplier was used as the Milwaukee Brewers’ Miller Park Stadium for the sod. The outfield includes irrigation sprinklers. The new construction included walls, a bullpen, home and away dugouts, a pressbox, spectator bleachers, concessions, bathrooms, and storage. Located near the Pike River floodway, this project required extensive coordination with the DNR. The DNR approved all fencing. A breakaway fence was installed to allow for water flow to flow freely in cases of the Pike River rising.
