Initial Development & History:

In 1992, Millcreek School District, Millcreek Township Supervisors & MYAA agreed to undertake the idea of a softball/baseball complex for Millcreek's youth & adult softball & baseball.  The property owned by the school district was acquired by Dr. George DeAngelo for the construction of a middle school for Millcreek Township School District (Walnut Creek Middle School).  In 1993, the complex was supported by the school district (property lease), Millcreek Township Supervisors ($55,000) & MYAA ($50,000+) and construction began.  Numerous supply donations & labor donations were made during the construction phase (began construction in the Fall of 1993).  Dedication was initially in 1994 & re-dedication ceremonies in 1998 in honor of McDowell baseball coach Dave Long.

Existing Equipment:

bulletFencing, backstops, bench areas, scoreboards for six ball fields
bulletConcession, rest rooms, storage facility

The school district has agreed to cut all grass in the complex.  Millcreek Township Recreation will drag all dirt infields & collect all garbage.

Development:

1999 MYAA installed a water sprinkling system to all outfields
2002 Adult softball field eliminated due to construction of new Asbury Elementary School
