Seniors Pat- rick Fabrizio and Jake Enslow are building a fastpitch field for the Lady Highchmbers. "The whole project is about help- ing our school and the girls have to go to MCRA to play so this gives them a closer place to play," Fabrizio said. On the first day of his project ± Fri- day, Aug. 12 - Fabrizio and Engstrom drew the lines for the field, mowed the grass and began working on making the field fiat and even. "I'm hoping to learn the elements of building a field," Fabrizio said. "I love baseball and play on the surface every day so I might as well learn to make one." He said the project will include building the field, a press box and dug- outs for both teams. "This is my first day working on the project, so I'm just going with the flow and seeing what's next," Fabrizio added. He said he was drawn to the project because he is interested in landscap- ing. "I'm planning to go to college for ra- diology but this interests me, too," he stated. Engstrom is the mentor for all five boys on both projects. "The requirements for doing a se- nior project are pretty low and the dedication the boys have put in has surpassed that requirement ten-fold," Engstrom said. "They've exceeded expectations on the amount of work they've done. I am very proud of them for sticking with the project through the whole process." Engstrem said the projects have re- ceived donations of supplies and time from Darren Bonds, Simpson Lumber Co., Olympic Panel Products, OPP, :: Eric Moore with Sound Roofing Selu- : i tions, ProBuild, Peninsula Trust, Dol- phin Quest Home Design and Thomp- son Engineering. "The building is going at the rate I expected it to go," Engstrom, who owns his own construction firm, said. "It is, for the lack of experience the boys had in this arena, coming together better than I expected. The quality is amaz- ing and the boys have taken a lot of time to listen to instructions and do it right." He stated that with the fastpitch field project just starting, he and the boys are looking for any help and do- nations the community can give them. Puterbaugh and Enslow were not available for comment.
