(Brookville, Ind.) – Franklin County School Corporation is asking for the community’s help to make Jim Hughes Field the best facility in the area.

Hughes, a Hall of Fame baseball coach, passed away unexpectedly on November 12, 2018

Community members can help carry on his legacy by purchasing a custom engraved paver to be placed along the backstop of the baseball field.

Each paver is $35.

Baseball field paver forms and payment must be submitted by July 1.
