$700,000 from the Panthers!

Today, as we were expecting to celebrate a $200,000 grant from the Carolina Panthers Charities we were surprised with an additional $500,000 from the Nicole and David Tepper Foundation!  Not only will these funds help us to build a multi-purpose field, but it will also include the Teppers and Panthers being a partner with us and helping us to find great success in the Miracle Park programming!  The Grand Opening date, August 21, was also set from 5-9pm.  

Go Panthers!!!  Welcome to Rock Hill!









 We are happy to add these two groups to our major donors list!  Thank you to all our donors!  We have now raised about $5.5 million of the $6.5 million needed for Phase 1 and a portion of Phase 2 (multi-purpose field)!

Progress Update - MLB Opening Day


According too ESPN, one of the most memorable moments of MLB Opening Day was Gary Sanchez,  the catcher for the Yankees, starting off the 2021 season strong by blasting a two-run, 407-foot home run to left field off Blue Jays ace Hyun-Jin Ryu in his first at-bat of the year.

Most memorable moment at Rock Hill Miracle Park?  PROGRESS!!!  Pushing forward to have our own opening day SOON!  The base of the Miracle Field #1 is laid, the roof is being put on the buildings, the sidewalks are being poured, the playground continues to be installed, programming is gearing up, and of course, the athletes and fans are getting excited! 
The playground will feature a shelter that can be used, just like
at Cherry Park, for birthdays and gatherings.

The restrooms beside the playground will be convenient for 
those playing in that area of the park. 
The Consessions, offices, and restrooms in the center of the park
are coming along great, just look at that beautiful design!
