SAUGUS — After a long wait, Island Lighting & Power began installing the lights at World Series Park in Saugus last Wednesday. The extreme rain in recent days has caused challenges to the installation process, but it will continue as the weather clears up.
“We’re happy to finally start the project and can’t wait to complete the installation, which might take a lot longer than planned because of the weather,” said World Series Park Superintendent Bob Davis. “We very much appreciate those people who continue to donate to our lighting fund.”
The World Series Park Lighting Fund is still looking for donors since the total cost for the lights and installation has come up short. Anyone who donates $100 or more can get their name or the name of a departed loved one on the permanent lighting fund plaque and will be invited to the dedication ceremony and reception, which will be held as soon as the lights are installed.
Donations can be made by sending a check payable to World Series Park at 8 Holden Ave., Saugus, MA 01906.
Donations can also be made online by going to www.worldseriespark.net and donating via the GoFundMe Charity account.
