Parks and Recreation Director Meghan Floyd stated that the draft for baseball is complete, and they have a total of 47 teams ranging from 5u to 14u. Floyd said they had 281 kids from Nashville alone to register for baseball. Floyd also mentioned that she talked to Superintendent Doug Graham and Mayor Larry Dunaway about being able to utilize the Junior High Basketball Gym for next basketball season due to having too many kids and programs just to have access to one court. Floyd said Graham agreed to allow them to use the Junior High Gym as well as white side.
