Elk City has encountered a good problem to have: attracting out of town visitors to visit the baseball / softball 5-plex fields in Ackley Park West. The problem? Parking.
City Manager Tom Ivester says currently Kids Inc., who conducts league play at the fields, currently has about 140 teams combined for this season’s baseball and softball leagues, and says nearly every weekend, tournaments are being conducted at the venues – which creates issues with parking.
Ivester says last weekend was no exception.
Ivester says despite the inconvenience of having to walk a littler farther, the parking lot between the two complexes are big enough to handle the anticipated amount of vehicles.

Despite the building not complete, the Elk City CAPPs committee is already forming plans on how the Elk City Activity Center will be used.
According to Elk City, City Manager Tom Ivester, the committee’s goal is to make sure the building is being utilized year round.
Currently the building is starting to see metal scaffolding being erected at the sight, which is located in Ackley Park West, south of the Elk City Elementary School.
The next CAPPs project the city plans to move forward with is the renovation of the city pool. Early planning for that project is already underway.
