Looking from the dugout towards rightfield along the old fence ...

... and here is the opposite view

Working Bee ... Jamie Snowdon, Ritchie Mounsey, Roger Dienhoff and Peter Ure pulling down the old fence

Working Bee ... Peter Ure and Jamie Snowdon

The fence is down and this area will become a new bullpen

The new fence posts ready to be concreted in

The next two shots show that the fence will now turn at ninety degrees to form the bullpen

The posts are in ...

... and the top rail has now been fitted ...

... and here is the new gate

Gary is now hanging the mesh

FINISHED !! ... looking from the first base dugout

FINISHED !! ... looking in from the corner of the new bullpen area

??-What Now-??

Over the next couple of months,
two mounds need to be built
plus an area for two catchers along with back screens

The mounds will be constructed so that the
pitcher is warming up in the same direction
as he will be throwing during the game

As well, shaded seating needs to be built for the players

Note - the area has been planned to be big enough
to also house a mobile batting cage
