ATTENTION!!!!

Storm
and Weather Delays
The Umpire-in-Chief has the authority to suspend all play
at the Park. The U-I-C is the Plate umpire on Diamond 7, unless
the Park U-I-C is on the premises. All other officials should
follow suit. Once play is suspended, the delay will be a minimum
of 20 minutes. In the case of cold weather conditions the
following guidelines should be followed: If the park temperature
falls below 40° F or there is a wind chill of 35°
F or below, games will not start and or play will be suspended
and the park will be closed. A thermometer will be located
near the concession stand and should be monitored by authorized
park personnel. If a game is likely to start and conditions
are expected to deteriorate during the course of the game,
judgment should be used whether or not to even start the game.
Umpires and coaches should be checking in if inclement weather
has preceded the start of games that day. The phone number
to the park is 277-9945.

Severe
Weather policy
The Severe Weather Policy of the Harris Park is to clear
the fields and dugouts for periods of not less than 15 minutes
when lightening is visible or thunder is heard. The players,
coaches and spectators are to leave the field and seek shelter.
The home plate umpire is responsible for enforcing this policy.
If the umpire believes that the weather will clear, he can
request that the team and coaches wait in their cars. Once
he calls the game, the park is closed and everyone should
leave immediately. Safety is the number one concern of the
board. Please follow the directions of the umpire and conduct
yourselves in a safe manner. Thank you for your cooperation.
