Pantigo Ballfield Relocation to Stephen Hands Path

Members of the Little League Ballfield Committee continue discussions with the Town of East Hampton regarding the relocation of the Little League Ballfield from 400 Pantigo, to Stephen Hands Path. The relocation of the ballfield comes from the local community’s desire to have a Free-Standing Emergency Department and imaging and diagnostic center in a centrally located area. Over the past two years, committee members have been working to identify and evaluate potential sites for construction of the new Ball Field. Last fall, the Committee recommended to the Town Board that the ball fields be relocated to 110 Stephen Hands Path, Wainscott. The recommendation met with unanimous support of the Town Board.
