NorthWestern Energy donates, installs light poles at Laurel Dodgers stadium
Date: Jun 7, 2024
Laurel, Mont. – June 7, 2024 – Games at the Laurel Dodgers American Legion stadium can be played under the lights again, thanks to equipment, material and labor donations.
NorthWestern Energy donated new light poles, removed the old lights and provided the equipment and labor for installation.
“The old light structures were at the end of their useful life,” said NorthWestern Energy Community Relations Manager Lisa Perry. “The Laurel Dodgers are a tremendous asset for the community of Laurel. We are honored to be able to contribute to the team.”
Ace Electric provided labor and some materials for the electric work for the lights. CED Billings donated materials. Midway Rental in Laurel donated the use of an 85-foot lift. Croell Inc. donated gravel to set the new poles. The city of Laurel recycled the old light poles and made sure the field’s sprinkler system worked.
“We have had the same lights and poles on the baseball field since the mid-80s, and to be able to upgrade, including to LED lights, will benefit baseball players in Laurel of years to come,” said Jon Knaub of the Laurel Dodgers. “Baseball has long been a summer tradition in Laurel and these businesses and organizations are helping keep that tradition alive, strong and bright.”
