Sen. Lesser Welcomes Nearly $500k for Rocky Hill Batting Cages

ROCKY HILL – Today, State Senator Matt Lesser celebrated approval of $495,000 by the State Bond Commission for the construction of an indoor batting cage facility at Elm Ridge Park in Rocky Hill.

The funding was approved unanimously on Thursday by the State Bond Commission.

“Rocky Hill Little League is an incredible asset for our community and the construction of these batting cages will really help level up their program,” said Sen. Lesser. “Now our young athletes will be able to work on their skills all year round. I am grateful to the State Bond Commission for approving the funding, and to Mayor Smith for his vision and leadership.”

This funding was previously allocated for an economic development project that has been paused. The State Bond Commission voted to reallocate this funding for the indoor batting cage project.
