Cannon County School Board made policy changes and advanced the discussion on facility upgrades at their regular monthly meeting this week (July 12th).One project discussed at the June meeting was developing a field house at the high school baseball field. The field is located on the county fairgrounds. Coach Collin Jones gave the board an update on the planning process. Indications are the bulk of the project will be funded by fans of the program. The board gave their support, pending approval by county government. More is expected at the next meeting.
