Branson RecPlex to change baseball fields to turf

The city of Branson’s major public baseball field complex is going to get a significant upgrade thanks to a grant to Branson Parks and Recreation from the Missouri Department of Economic Development.

The parks department was awarded almost $1.6 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds through the Local Tourism Asset Development Program. The grant is designated for upgrading four ballfields at the Branson RecPlex with artificial turf.

“We’re really excited to get this ARPA grant to improve the Branson RecPlex fields,” Branson Parks and Recreation head Cindy Shook told Branson Tri-Lakes News. “This is a long desired upgrade to the complex.”
