SBHS Dons celebrate new Snack Shack to replace decades-old structure
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Santa Barbara High School celebrated a community home run on Friday. It came in the form of a new snack shack for the Don's baseball team and fans.
A large crane was brought in to place the structure next to the field off Canon Perdido.
The Tuff Shed addition is just one of a number of improvements, including new fencing and a new ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant walking path to the bleachers.
Two major fundraisers spear-headed by this year's players and Dons' Coach Steve Schuck made the improvements possible.
"It's just super awesome to see people donate to the field," said Liam Keithleyl, a SBHS senior and Dons baseball player. "It's now an amazing field. It went from nothing to something with Schuck."
The team took a key role in the improvements, thanks to two successful fundraisers last year.
Now, they're looking to raise $125,000 to finish the remodel and replace the decades-old scoreboard.
