We couldn't have done it without you!
The sponsor level donor support of Dick and Roberta Haakenson, I-5 Toyota, and Pacific Mobile Structures was essential to finishing the new Chehalis Sports Complex at Rec Park. The newly named ballfields are in their honor. We want to send out a huge thank you to them. We love the way the signs turned out, too!
What a fantastic, small community we live in! The generosity of volunteer Foundation members with their time, to raise needed funds, and the unbelievable donors who made visions a reality have made Chehalis a destination community. Thanks to the Park & Rec Dept. also for their BIG role in making this happen!!
Such a BEAUTIFUL park! So very sad my girl didn’t get to play her senior season here! But how amazing for the future Bearcats! And all the tournaments that can be played and memories made here! Thank you to all that made this possible! What a beautiful park to have in our community 🥎❤️

Our sincerest thanks go to Olympia Master Builders for their generosity in constructing the shade shelter in Penny Playground. Mike Koidahl, MDK Construction, John Johnson, Johnson Custom Homes, and Gil Fernandez, W&G Construction, led the team of 20 volunteers who built the new shade shelter on a sunny Saturday morning in May. Mike Koidahl organized the project. Roofing materials were donated by W&G Construction. Gutters were donated by Johnson Custom Homes. Engineering was donated by Exodus Engineering. Louws Truss donated the trusses. Mike and Susan Austin continued their legacy of generous giving by donating the balance of the materials.
Please note the late addition of Louws Truss who donated the trusses. Sorry for not including it on the original post! It has been added to the list here of generous supporters!
I drove by the park the other day and was really impressed. Very nice. And the kids who go there will love it.
The park looks fantastic...What a neat entrance to our town.
Thank you everyone! This community never ceases to amaze me. ❤️
Amazing! Thank you to all of the generous donors.
