Neosho Schools approve softball field renovations
Neosho Daily News
On Apr. 26 the Neosho board of education held a special meeting that discussed a proposal for renovations to the high school softball field that came to $450,178.
Superintendent Dr. Jim Cummins said that after the baseball field dedication ceremony earlier this month, he was approached by Jim O’Dell, of O’Dell Trucking LLC in Neosho, about raising funds for softball field renovations similar to the recent renovations made to the baseball field.
“I do it for the girls, but it’s not just the softball program,” said O’Dell over the phone. “O’Dell Trucking, we donated for the turfing of the football field. We’re with the baseball and softball field (renovations). We’re for the kids in the community and this is a way we can give back for the kids, plus I have three granddaughters that play softball.”
