Why We Funded
The Mirolo Dream Field at Mount Carmel Stadium in the City of Grove City is a fully inclusive field that allows kids and adults with disabilities to participate in baseball. The Mirolo Charitable Foundation is proud of this field that came to fruition through public and private sectors for a great cause. The award-winning field allows members of the community with all levels of disabilities to participate with their peers in America’s pastime.
