I umpired a couple hundred games at this field, also managed Wentzville's Khoury team and played against Warrenton here.
Back about 20 years ago Warrenton hired a new parks manager who had been fired by a couple other cities. One of his first actions was to confiscated all ball field in city limits, no matter who owned them. This field and the American Legion Field.
His plan was to destroy all fields in the city and build a huge complex north of town. He built the complex. A monstrosity.
The new complex had the rest rooms a quarter mile from the fields, and the concessions. It was and still is a joke.
Khoury league folded around that time, and all the small Mid-Missouri cities were left to run the games themselves.
The city added to these field and made it a park. They tore down the grandstands, and press box, which use to be right behind the backstop.
Not used much anymore, all scheduled games are out at the complex.
Baseball field and softball field located past center field of the baseball field.
