Gibson Field Scoreboard Celebrated

CHS Varsity Baseball team with coach Ben Shuffain, Booster Club President Craig Allen, AD Danny Erickson, Little League's and CHS Booster Brett Burbank, Little League's and recently elected Selectmen Mike Loughran, Principal Derek Folan, Superintendent Jennifer Fischer-Mueller, The Bank of Canton's David Scarcella, The Bank of Canton's Steve Costello, CPS Business Administrator Barry Nectow. 
Members of the 2019 CHS Boys Varsity Baseball team took time out of their pre-game opening day preparations to join school and community officials in recognizing the newly installed scoreboard for the field. The scoreboard has been a long time coming and was made possible by donations from The Bank of Canton, Canton Little League and the CHS Athletic Booster Club as well as the hard work of the Canton Dept. of Public Works, Canton Recreation Department and CPS Maintenance Department.

The Gibson Scoreboard will be used by High School, Little League as well as other local baseball groups. It is a state of the art scoreboard that is completely solar powered.

Once again, this is such a great example of how fortunate our Bulldog student athletes are to live in this community.  So many businesses continue to show support of our student athletes in so many ways. This is far from the first time The Bank of Canton has supported the purchase of a scoreboard for our kids.  They have actually been the primary provider of baseball/softball scoreboards all around town. We are so lucky to have then as industry leaders in Canton. Next time you are in the bank, be sure to thank them for us!

The Bulldogs face-off against D2 power Duxbury in their opening game.  Hopefully there will be some good news for fans to see on the new scoreboard!

Go Dogs!
