Hellas Construction recently replaced turf they initially installed 12 years ago at the El Dorado baseball stadium.

“Hellas and the City of El Dorado have had a good relationship in the last 12 years,” said Adam McCormick, the El Dorado high school baseball coach. “If something came up, Hellas came over and helped fix it in a timely manner. They do very high quality work, which makes it a beautiful surface to play on.”

Having superior facilities is something McCormick feels is important not just for a school, but to a community as well.

“It is super important for our school and community to have the best facilities possible,” McCormick said. “If we have beautiful facilities that will draw teams to our town to play games, eat at our local restaurants and play on a beautiful field. With Butler Community College, El Dorado High School, El Dorado American Legion Post 81 and the El Dorado Walnuts all using the fields during their respective seasons, it is huge for us to have a quality facility that is well taken care of and up to the standards of all teams.” 

McCormick and the city have been pleased with the work Hellas has done both times.

“I would highly recommend them (Hellas),” McCormick said. “The city sent a bid out with what exactly they wanted and Hellas met those expectations and they do very high quality work.”
