"Little Padre Parks" provide clean, safe fields for youth baseball

In December, the San Diego Padres dedicated three Little Padre Parks, bringing the total refurbished fields to 39 since the programs inception in September of 1996. On December 3, the club dedicated a PONY field in Ramona, CA, an area hard-hit by the Witch Creek Fire in October 2007. On December 6, the Padres dedicated two Little League fields in the Allied Gardens neighborhood of San Diego. Many were on hand for the dedication, including Padres CEO Sandy Alderson, manager Bud Black, third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff and County Supervisor Dianne Jacob. This year, the Padres will refurbish/build the 40th Little Padres Park in celebration of the club's 40th anniversary.
