The City is being asked to continue making investments in their baseball diamonds. At Thursday night's meeting, President of Woodstock Minor Baseball Brent Peltola said some of the smaller diamonds in the city are not big enough to fully accommodate the dimensions of the games they play, so they are forced to modify the diamonds to make it safe for the players. Peltola says almost 500 minors play in the city with 95% of them living in Woodstock. "Minor ball has actually seen a growth in Woodstock in the last two years, our registration is up by 10% over the last two years and we're really an anomaly in southern Ontario. Most minor ball associations are actually shrinking while we are growing". Peltola says they would like the city to consider not only new development, but also to continue to maintain existing diamonds. He says "there are good serviceable diamonds that would not take millions of dollars to keep up to date. We would hope that they could continue to improve those diamonds".
