Batting Cage at Everett Park

The Friends of Lake Forest Parks and Recreation Foundation is proud to have brought the baseball field at Everett Park to life. It was built in loving memory of Steven Brian Malin Jr., the son of Maria and current board member Steve Malin, who passed away in 2003 at the tender age of 11. The field features a statue of Steven Jr. to honor him and his love of the game.

With the expansion of the baseball program at the LF Parks and Recreation Center, a new need has emerged—a batting cage at Everett Park. As one of the Friend's Foundation's first projects of the year, this addition will offer players of all ages a dedicated space to refine their skills. With the Junior Scouts Travel Baseball program launching in September 2024, the batting cage has become a top priority for the center.

Your donation will help us reach our $20,000 goal to fulfill this purchase. Together, we can honor Steven Jr.'s memory and support the athletes in our community. Join us in making it happen. Play ball!
