The baseballs that they hit and throw <br />can be dangerous to people (especially children) that are <br />in the immediate vicinity of the field. Without the proper <br />type and height of fencing enclosing the field, a dangerous <br />situation exists. <br />Also, fields without fencing are vulnerable to small children <br />wandering onto the field, which creates a dangerous situation <br />An un-fenced field also is highly vulnerable to vandals <br />with ail-terrain vehicles,motorbiKe«. and automobiles. <br />There is not one officer in our association that is willing <br />to be associated with the building of an un-fenced. unsafe <br />Little League Field. Every single chartered Little League <br />in this District has fully developed, safe fields. Why <br />would Orono. with the site ready and the funding in place, <br />be any different. <br />Further, there is not one office^ in our association that <br />would sign the liability insurance policy that we are required <br />to furnish under the provisions set forth by the Park Board <br />unless this field is fenced-in and safe.
