I think these are great ideas.

1. We set up a local “league” of colorful only-in-Savannah teams and have a season of exhibition games at Grayson so we can show that people will come out and support a team. It could be a ton of fun for the community to build the teams and it could be used to raise money for various causes.
2. What other kinds of events could be held at Grayson? A production of Field of Dreams performed on the diamond? Are there other baseball-themed musicals?

If Grayson can become a community and cultural hub, and not just a baseball stadium, it’s more feasible to perform the upgrades and try to attract another team.
