Wanted to take a moment to share a few exciting upgrades going on at the field. The first one dates back to last year. Towards the end of the 2024 season the lights at the field started to fade. The board decided to upgrade them to LED lights. The project started off with a $4000 dollar grant from Eastern Illini Electric and COBANK. Wanted to send a special thanks to Mike Wilson of EIEC and EIEC board member and Ashkum resident Tyler Finegan for helping make this happen. The lights were purchased through Wesco Anixter out of Bradley IL. Special thanks to former AAA board member and Ashkum resident Jason Shoven for helping make this a very quick and painless process. With his recommendation B & D Electric out of Watseka was hired to swap out all of the old lights with the new LEDS. Also, wanted to take a minute to thank Jason Prairie with Prairie Brothers Construction out of Clifton and Graham Able with A-Built Ag Builders out of Ashkum for supplying the lifts to help get the electricians off the ground to get the new lights installed. After 2 short days, Josh and his crew had all the lights installed and what a difference it has made. Pictured L to R below are AAA Board President Ryan Meister, EIEC board member Tyler Finegan and AAA board member Isaac Gray. Stay tuned for more exciting updates.

We are starting our fundraiser for this year. We are raising money this year to replace the lights at the field. Due to old age and an untimely lighting strike over the winter, the time has come to make the upgrade. It is a cash raffle that will run the full month of October. The winning number is determined by that evenings pick 3 lotto. Your ticket is eligible to win as many times as that number is drawn in that month. Payment can be made by Venmo or mailing checks made out to Ashkum Athletic Association and mailed to P.O Box 372 Ashkum IL 60911. If anyone seeing this could share it on Facebook or Snapchat or any other form of social media, I would truly appreciate it. This is a big step for us but it ensures we will be able to keep the field lit up for future teams for a long time to come. I appreciate everyone’s support.
