At 9 a.m. on Saturday, June 2, plan to attend a historical grand opening celebration of the new community athletic fields co-located at Mankato Area Public Schools' Rosa Parks Elementary School, 1001 Heron Drive, Mankato.  This is a rain or shine event.

Hundreds of youth are expected to attend the first activity, annual picture day, at the new fields.   Immediately following the brief 9 a.m ceremony, the national anthem will be sung by Mankato Area Public Schools' graduate and college student Nancy Jo Goettl.  Baseball scrimmages will be held, making it the first time ever that the Mankato Area Youth Baseball Association (MAYBA) will have youth playing on the new fields.
